J'ai passé un entretien chez Spotify (New York, NY)
Entretien
approached by recruiter,45 -60 min call with recruiter , 1 hr video screen, 6 hr on-site interview. I did not get the offer, and the worst part that they wouldn't tell why - they gave a canned answer, saying it's due to lack of experience with ABC, which was apparent from the resume, so why bring me onsite, without offering to pay the travel expenses and keep me there for 6 hours? Otherwise all the interviewers were nice and polite

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.
