The virtual onsite consists on:
1. Behavioral
2. Android
3. DSA
4. System Design
I believe the interviews went well except for the Android one where I lost lots of time on arch when they seemed most interested on solving app functionality part. So, if you have interviews scheduled for Android, run for the juicy part. I'd personally conduct that type of interview differently.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Spotify (Stockholm, Stockholm) in Sept 2019
Interview
A recruiter reached me through Linked In, for an opportunity in Stockholm. I set a calendar appointment and also sent a private message to ask more details about the proccess. Never got a response.Nevetheless, the date of the appointment reached ( Google Meet Room) and I enter the specified room with the correct code and the recruiter never let me join our meeting . I tried another three times. Waited half an hour and then I closed the application. The calendar was no longer availble ,so I wasn't able to rescedule the appointment from the attached link. Don't know what happened , but i would be nice if I had a heads up . If she couldn't make it, she should have reached me to find a solution . I got a day off from my work for nothing.
