I applied overseas via LinkedIn.
I was contacted after two weeks for a screening interview.
The next round was with the hiring manager. It wasn't very technical, focusing more on my managerial experience and capabilities. The interview lasted around 1 hour and 10 minutes and seemed very positive.
I was almost sure I'd be going for the next round, but within a week, I received a polite thank you email from HR with no feedback.
The job ad is still active; it looks like they are not in a hurry.
I think living overseas and being an active musician/producer was my main disadvantage.
There isn't much more to say. It's a pity I spent all this effort.
Very basic managerial and technical stuff. The interviewer had not much idea about the music industry and the app’s drawbacks, which surprised me a bit.
