J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Zalando
Entretien
1. HR Interview
2. Coding test (Strings, lists)
3. Technical Interview
4. Then, 3 interviews in a day (System Des., Coding, General tech.).
The interviewers were friendly but I feel the process is a little too much for a junior role and especially the system design part and not all junior engineers are involved in the complete architecture of the application they are working on.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Design the UML diagram and layers of architecture for the application/project you were working on. Discussion on the coding question. General discussion on the tech stack you worked on and what new things you are learning.

Autres retours d’entretien d’embauche pour un poste comme Junior Software Engineer chez Zalando
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Zalando (Berlin) en juil. 2025
Entretien
HR - HM - 3 tech rounds. In total less then 3 weeks. It's fairly fast and well structured. 3 tech rounds are general tech ( very closely related to your previous role and the role you are interviewing ), DA, and then system design is also very related to the role. Each tech round is 1 hour, it can come in different orders cuz for me system design came first. In the end the hr give me a feedback session.

Question 1
It was a backend + data role. A lot of database postgre stuff. And also cloud stuff. Like how kubernetes work? People are very nice.
It was organised and straightforward. I had 1 HR screening after OA then I had a round of 4 interviews (coding-sys design-bar raiser-hiring manager)
It focused on Java mainly and I talked about my past experience.

The process is straight forward but there are too many of them. First talking to the recruiter then a coding challenge, and then another online with a manager supervising and asking questions.
