First round was values/behavioral-based with the hiring manager and another engineer. The second/final round was with 2 other engineers where they asked about a previous ML project, various questions regarding ML and tech stack. I like that Spotify gives you a general summary on what the interview will be about so you can prepare beforehand.

It was a pleasant conversation. The recruiter was friendly and very clear at communication. The information was transparent. I didn't continue to the next interview because I decided not to relocate.
