Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. Acudí a una entrevista en Bending Spoons (Milán)
Entrevista
I got contacted on LinkedIn and I sent my CV and a cover letter. After a few days, I was sent a batch of take-home tests, and if you do good on those you are given the next batch of tests and an initial interview. There were a couple more interviews after the initial one and the recruiter was happy to accommodate the times because of my specific circumstances. The recruiter was also friendly and responsive to any questions I had so it was an overall good experience and took a bit more than a month.

Entrevista
I did my application process during Fall 2023. First I submitted my CV, cover letter, and my academic transcript. I was given 11 tasks (tests) in three batches. These were mostly logical problems, coding problems, or questions about myself. After those, I had three interviews: behavioral, problem-solving, and technical. None of these need preparation beforehand. The interviews test problem-solving skills and critical thinking capabilities rather than testing for specific theoretical knowledge. For me, first two interviews were pretty chill; the technical one was more stressful, as I had no prior experience in backend.
