I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Spotify (Atlanta, GA)
Interview
Interview process started with a phone call with the hiring manager which consisted of general questions about my background.
Next step was a technical screen. This was a SQL and Python live coding interview. The SQL questions were pretty basic. Python questions were all involving Pandas which my recruiter told me there would be no packages on that portion even though it was all package questions.
