Solicité el puesto a través de la recomendación de un empleado. El proceso duró 4 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Spotify (New York, NY) en jun 2021
Entrevista
One of the worst recruiting processes I've ever experienced. For context, Spotify doesn't have a standardized interview process across the company, which is very strange for a company of this size. Some roles will focus only on behavioral interviews, while others may touch a little on standard PM product interviews (e.g. product strategy).
I had a first round interview screen with the recruiter, and then a month later, an interview with the hiring manager. The interviews themselves were straightforward.
That said, the recruiter was very unresponsive throughout the process and just seemed to not have his stuff together. I've heard from other colleagues (and friends at Spotify) that Spotify's recruitment team is bad—unorganized, slow, and not very respectful towards candidates, but I definitely did not expect it to be this bad. I'd definitely recommend future candidates to over-communicate with their recruiters.

Q: Tell me about a time you used data to inform a product decision
3 rounds. Phone screen with recruiter, convo with hiring manager, final round was 3 additional conversations with the team. Questions centered on previous experience, working with data, product strategy, etc.

It was good, for the period while it lasted. The main kicker though, was that they closed the role right in the middle of my interview process without communicating why.
Structured and professional. Assessments were tough but fair, making sure you could translate needs into features which drive product roadmaps and established milestones to measure against. Recruiters were flighty and like any big company they rely on their brand to have you want them
