J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris plus d'une semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Spotify en mars 2022
Entretien
Recruiter stage was fine. The recruiter was friendly and quickly moved me on to the second round.
In the second round I interviewed with an engineer and was asked to work through an easy/moderate difficulty algorithm question. I got the simple O(N^2) solution fairly quickly and then reduced it to O(N) time and space complexity when he asked. The conversation seemed to go well and he implied that I would probably be moving on to the next round.
Days pass and I reach out to the recruiter because I haven't heard anything and she informs me that I won't be moving on and I should wait "a few months" before applying to other roles. I reached out to the engineer who interviewed me for feedback. He said he liked me and that he indicated I should move on to the next round. Despite that they just decided that I wasn't a good fit for any current roles after having me complete the first two rounds of the interview process. It's a very odd and frustrating experience.

The interview process was long and drawn out. It took 2.5 months with multiple delays and rearrangements from Spotify side. I can’t fault the actual interviewers, they were very nice and considerate, but the organisation of the process was very messy and disorganised. At the end I received a rejection with no feedback on Christmas Eve.
