Candidatei-me por meio de uma agência de recrutamento. O processo levou 3 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Asana (San Francisco, CA) em abr. de 2015
Entrevista
Initial phone call lasting 45 minutes asking about why I wanted to work at Asana; 15 minutes on my background and 30 minutes hearing about the company and what they stand for, philosophy, values, etc.
After this I was asked to spend 1-2 hours completing a homework assignment. I sent it over on a Tuesday night and had to follow-up two days later to see if they had gotten it, which I was then told they did. On Sunday, I followed up again to see if they had reviewed the assignment as well as to update them about an offer I had received from another potential employer. I heard back later that night they had looked at my assignment and liked it. They asked to schedule a phone call for the next day.
I talked with a PM who launched right into the same questions that I had answered in the homework assignment. The 45 minute conversation was 30 minutes of me basically re-doing the assignment verbally (except with a different app). The PM didn't seem interested in the conversation at all, nor did they ask for any information about my experience or skills. This cemented my decision to take my other offer quickly.
I finally heard back from Asana two weeks later with an apology that the recruiter had been out for a week. This struck me as odd since it had actually been 2 weeks since the interview and they only needed feedback from the one PM.
Overall impression: The process ultimately was a waste of time and was disrespectful. This includes a lack of responsiveness from the recruiter as well as the obvious lack of interest from the PM. Each time I emailed the recruiter asking for an update I was given excuses for the delay. If this is how I was treated as a candidate then I'm confident in my decision to have accepted the other offer before hearing back from them.

Homework Assignment: "Spotify believes that users have a better overall experience if they listen to new music. What should Spotify do in order to get more users listening to new music, how would you measure it, etc"
Not too bad. Thought it would be worse given the founder's background. Liked the people. All very nice. Expected some brain teasers like they have for Google interviews. Showed my portfolio of prior work

What was your most challenging situation and how do you solve that
Start with phone interview and then you have to do a presentation followed by 1:1 with key xfn stakeholders. Interviews are pretty standard PM rounds and the presentation is the most important -- spend a good chunk of time preparing for it -- if you nail that down, rest of the interviews become just about selling you on Asana.
