Process

There are 3 steps:

  1. Call with an HR representative. This is an initial screening, and it can get a bit technical. It was a good experience, as the recruiter seemed to be motivated to work at Spotify and gave you good vibes about the company.

  2. Video Interview. This will be a 45-minute coding test, sharing your screen, and a 45-minute trivia section. The problems are fun, mostly to test your logic.

  3. On-site Interview. This will actually be 4 interviews (coding, case, values, and system design) plus lunch with employees. It's a good experience overall, as you can get a feeling for how it is to work at the company.

Questions

For coding interviews, I suggest practicing logical tests, such as Advent of Code.

Values: be yourself.

Case: This will basically put you in a scenario solving an incident. This is the most fun interview.
