Software Engineer Interview Experience - Amsterdam, Netherlands
Process
Hackerrank test: 48 hours HR interview Technical interview 6-hour interview day: 2 interviews + presentation
Overall, they expect you to put a lot of time into applying. HR doesn't do a great job preparing you for the interviews. My advice would be to practice well ahead. Unlike what HR says, make sure not to ask questions during the technical interview. Make sure to ask good questions otherwise; they like that.
