Envié una solicitud electrónica. El proceso duró 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Zalando (Berlín) en sept 2015
Entrevista
- applied beginning august 15
- interview with HR to talk projects in beginning september 15
- interview with team leader in end september 15
- technical interview in end september 15
Initial interview was around 1 hour, about motivation, background and projects, as well as the possible questions on the company.
Technical interview was 45 minutes with a company developer and tackled language-related questions and an algorithm problem.
Initial interviews went well, interviewers were very cool and open and I felt motivated to work for them. Technical interview on the other hand was a bit cold and impersonal, had a bad vibe with the interviewer with whom I ended up disagreeing quite strongly.
All-in-all, interview was bad luck as Zalando seem like a decent company to work with, but I was quite displeased with being so easily dismissed on simple stuff while having a PhD and decent experience in development.
I made 3 Rounds, first a classical HR nterview-then a live coding (somthing like binary search) then a system design (design an inventory system) tehy told me that I didn't pass at the system design level( ishould asked for the number of clients not to make assumptions
