Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Spotify (Estocolmo, ) en sep 2019
Entrevista
I had 3 rounds of interview via Zoom for a role in Stockholm, I'm based in the U.S. They paid for 2 days of accommodation, flight, and food stipend for the last round in Sweden. This turned out to be another 7 interviews. Plus lunch with the entire team. I was insanely jet lagged and had not been able to sleep at all the night before. From the 7 people who interviewed me, only 1 would actually work with me on a daily basis. It was exhausting , you're stuck in a room with back to back interviews until a lunch break, and then all over again in the afternoon. Some interviewers seemed to not even know why they had been assigned to interview me. By the last interview, with the VP, I was brain dead. Even though it was definitely the best exchange/conversation of the day. At the end of the day, I just wanted it all to be over, and did not feel compelled to join the company at all. I wasn't surprised that they didn't make an offer, that I wasn't going to accept anyways.

Pretty basic product management questions, how do you prioritize competing requests... etc.
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
