I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bending Spoons in Aug 2024
Interview
Once I had gone through the selection process (examination of my CV and a technical task to be completed in 1h on statistics, probability, databases, programming...), I had to complete another set of tasks regarding different knowledge, also not strictly related to the role I was applying for; one of the tasks was a questionnaire (open-ended) on personal experience and aptitudes. I would have preferred to be able to talk to a recruiter in person rather than do everything via computer.
However, the recruiter who was assigned to me from the beginning of the process was very quick in evaluating my CV and completed tasks.
I did not proceed to the next step as other candidates had done the tasks better than me.
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.
Interview questions [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.
