Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Spotify (San Francisco, CA)
Colloquio
The day after showing initial interest in working at Spotify, I was contacted by HR. A week later, I went in for lunch, an architectural interview with some members of the team, followed by informal coffee interview afterwards. I was also giving a take-home project to work on, and a week to complete it. A few days after going in to their office, I chatted on Skype with the director of engineering to answer any lingering questions I had. A couple days after submitting the take-home project, I received an offer.

Colloquio
The interview process was long and drawn out. It took 2.5 months with multiple delays and rearrangements from Spotify side. I can’t fault the actual interviewers, they were very nice and considerate, but the organisation of the process was very messy and disorganised. At the end I received a rejection with no feedback on Christmas Eve.
