Entrevista
Overall the interview process was unstructured. I started off with several calls with management (with very positive feedback!) before getting sent to the recruiter, and then finally the hiring manager, which was not aligned with the rest of management on what experience and skills were the most essential for the role. The recruiter did not give me any information about the structure around the process and interview rounds. After the third call I was informed that it would be three more rounds, followed by a presentation - in total 7 "rounds". Unnecessarily many steps for this position in my opinion, especially when time dragged out between rounds. Everyone I met were very nice and friendly, but not on the same page as each other. Having interviewed at several other large tech firms I was disappointed at this process.

Entrevista
I applied online through Spotify’s own website and career portal and then was contacted by HR for an initial phone screening interview call roughly 2 weeks after. After this call, the recruiter scheduled a 30 minute video interview with the hiring manager. The Hiring Manager was very kind in providing additional context about the role and its responsibilities itself as well as the broader organization it would sit under. HM asked pretty broad questions about my work experience and the follow up questions were aimed with how this would tie into the role requirements. Got an automated email 1-2 days later from the recruiter with no information and when I followed up asking for any feedback I was not provided with any.

Can you talk about a product launch you worked on? What was your involvement and what was the end result?
I had in-depth Interviews with recruiter, manager, and team lead. I also spoke to other members of the team, but they weren't decision-makers. It was more of a check on culture fit.

Entrevista
No recruiter preparation provided throughout the whole interview process, lack of clarity around who I was speaking to and when. Questions from hiring manager not related in any way to background or expertise such as “imagine you’re running a lemonade stand, what metrics are important?” Additional interviewer added to case interview without any heads up or preparation. No communication after final interview for over a week and a half. In final rejection email feedback was offered by recruiter, when I followed up to accept the feedback the response was “we don’t have any feedback to share at this time.”
