I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Spotify in Feb 2022
Interview
I recently had the opportunity to interview for a product design position at Spotify, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The company's approach to the interview process reflects its commitment to finding top-tier talent that not only aligns with the organization's values but also possesses the creativity and innovation necessary for shaping the future of music and content delivery.

Question 1
Can you walk us through a specific design project from your portfolio, highlighting the key challenges you faced, the decisions you made, and the impact your design had on the user experience?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Spotify (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2023
Interview
Three rounds of interview, first portfolio review, then app critique, finally meet the team. The process was long and the recruiter wasn't responsive. There was clearly bias in the final interview, as I was interviewed first but by the time they finished with the last applicant, I was forgotten. The hiring manager did not take notes and just went off of gut feeling. Very unprofessional.
