O processo levou 5 meses. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Spotify (Estocolmo, ).
Entrevista
Very chaotic. Five months between recruiter first contact and process end, with multiple recruiters involved. I declined when first offered to proceed, but then got a mail saying I had been accepted to the next step. Got a test which seemed fun, so I did it, but then never got any feedback. Confused mails where exchanged. It was always unclear about where I was in the process, which position we were really discussing (there were multiple and I asked several times for descriptions but never got one).
I was in interview process with Google at the same time, and the difference was huge. With Google I knew exactly what was going on, who I was talking to, what the next step was and how to prepare for it.

The hiring manager started the first round interview with "I'm gonna get ahead of this but based on your experience I don't think it's a good fit." Huh?? Then why do the interview in the first place? this wasn't even a referral? They were dismissive the whole interview and I couldn't wait for it to end. Also mentioned the role wouldn't be technical which tells me the JD was misleading. Additionally, the pay is below average for the level of experience they were requiring. Overall, not worth it - especially if the interview would be indicative of management style.
Had a first round interview with a recruiter, questions were about examples of A\B testing, a visualization dashboard, and once we worked on performance metrics. Interview rounds are 5 one online coding, a hiring manager, a case and presentation.
