J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez Adyen (Chicago, IL) en mai 2025
Entretien
Got a referral from someone internally, then spoke briefly with recruiter, then team lead, had a timed coding test, an hour review/revise session with some engineers on different teams, then a final behavioral interview with an SVP.
Between the submitting the coding test & reviewing it there was a company-wide offsite for 2 weeks that I was not informed of. By the time they had their employees review my result and decide on another round of the interview, it had been 3.5 weeks. No one acknowledged that I had been left waiting in the dark and no one apologized for it either.

Question 1
Describe a time I disagreed with a manager, what I did, and what was the end result.
Pretty smooth experience, recruiter was very good, 5 rounds in total, online test, screening, DSA, system Design, leadership discussion, global leadership round, which was with CTO of adyen,so great overall
I applied the position which aligns with my experience via Adyen's application platform with referral program. My referrer answered their questions carefully, however then I got rejection via email without feedback. I was expecting from them to be clear what's the reason.
