J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris plus d'une semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Spotify (Stockholm, ) en févr. 2014
Entretien
The initial step of the interview process was an email of a recruiter scheduling an initial talk which covered topics like: personal interests, experience, pretensions.
The next step was an interview with a member of the technical team covering technologies and protocols: HTTP, PHP, Python, Web Architecture, MVC, etc.
Third step was the algorithms test with another member of the technical team, with problems about data structure, sorting, graphs, big O, etc.

The interview process was long and drawn out. It took 2.5 months with multiple delays and rearrangements from Spotify side. I can’t fault the actual interviewers, they were very nice and considerate, but the organisation of the process was very messy and disorganised. At the end I received a rejection with no feedback on Christmas Eve.
