Difficult. 2 part interview. The first is very normal for a software interview. The second round is 4 interviews in the same day took about 4.5 hours. Another random typical tech interview similar to the first round then personality, system design and another harder technical question. Need study for sure. It was my first system design and I bombed. Most of the interviewers were nice and encouraging.

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.
