Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). O processo levou 2 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Spotify em jan. de 2013
Entrevista
Phone interview and onsite.
1) 1 round phone interview covers all the basics of computer science i.e, OS, synchronization, networking, distributed systems, software engineering process. Then there were 2 simple coding questions on shared editor.
After this they said there will be an onsite. Recruiter called me to check about my salary details. When I told my salary, bonus, equity per annum which is like 105k + 10k + 7k recruiter remained silent. He then said he will get back to me about the schedule for the onsite. Since they did not want to proceed because of salary they for formality arranged a 2nd phone round interview. Obviously it was not technical interview and they just said they won't proceed after that.

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.
