J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Bending Spoons
Entretien
I saw an open position on the website and decided to apply. The process is made up of several phases:
1 - Screening process, where your CV has to be selected, together with additional documents if the applicant wants to (e.g. cover letter).
2 - Two sets of problem solving tasks, that are made at home with great time flexibility. Tasks require basically only logic, together with basic statistics and probability knowledge, but nothing to be prepared in advanced. Additionally, more personal questions will be asked.
3 - Interview with the hiring team, about your background and study/work experience.
4 - Problem solving interview.
5 - Technical interview(s), with questions related to the field you are applying for (but really no hard skill).
Overall, the process is quite long, but it can be sped up on request. I find it quite balanced, as only the raw skill of the applicant is tested. The recruiter taking care of me was always very quick in answering my concerns and accommodating for my needs.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Cannot reveal the questions as the company requires to keep it confidential.
Firstly two rounds of online tests, including logical and statistical questions. Then first round interview is also logical question, but requires careful thinking. You need to think out loud and also correctly, don’t rush for the pace.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
A logical question about flipping cards. How many times do you need to ensure a certain result.
Six rounds of different numerical problems, took a really long period of time to actually finish them, led to nothing. It's a demonstration of how careful they pick candidates, but also very time-consuming so you need to be considerate.

Ho fatto application e ricevuto i test. Il test era uno. Ho svolto un test di logica e domande di probabilità. Non c’erano domande particolarmente tecniche ma il focus era sul ragionamento veloce.
