Process

A current Spotify employee referred me for the position. As a fresh graduate, I could only start the job on a specific date, so the recruiter told me to reach out in a couple of months.

The initial call was with a very nice recruiter who explained the process.

The first technical interview was a 90-minute call with two engineers. They asked about 20 quiz questions and assigned a technical task to complete by sharing my screen and coding in Xcode.

Everything went well, and I moved on to the next step, which consisted of a 60-minute interview with two managers. The topics discussed were usually cultural fit questions.

After that, I was flown out for the onsite interview to Stockholm. Two nights in a very nice hotel were booked for me, with flights and everything sorted out by an external company.

The onsite consisted of three interviews and a lunch with other team members.

The interviews were of average difficulty and very broad in topics.

  • The first one was a "show and tell" project where I had to bring a project I worked on recently and explain it for 45 minutes.
  • The second interview was again a cultural fit, very similar to the previous one (I'm not sure why I did it again).

After lunch, a problem-solving interview was scheduled. The question was a medium-difficulty algorithmic question to be solved and explained on the whiteboard.

I received a pretty good offer for a specific team a few days later and accepted it.

Questions
