Entrevista
This was the most efficient process I've ever seen.
HR replied within 24h to all interactions, and the whole process was very short from first meeting to offer.
The different interviews were:
- HR phone call (30 min)
- Home Assignment: SQL, Spark, Leetcode (medium) (1h30)
- Hiring manager meeting call: home assignment review, SQL, Leetcode (easy) (1h)
- Coding Interview: Leetcode (medium) (1h)
- Data Engineering Questions: Global knowledge questions (1h)
- System Design (1h)
- Culture Fit interview (1h)

The interview process included a 30-minute HR interview, followed by a 1-hour session with the hiring manager, and then three technical interviews. There was flexibility to schedule all interviews on the same day or spread them across multiple days.
In the first technical interview, they asked general technical questions related to my experience, along with some scenario-based questions.
The second interview focused on system architecture design, while the third involved a coding challenge.

Typical interview process with HR, Hiring manager, technical interview, and culture fit check. You can feel that their technical people are not capable - they have very limited knowledge, knowing only the toolkit Zalando uses, and have difficulties to understand latest technologies and theories behind them. You probably wanted to work with smarter people.
