It's long and sometimes it's hard to schedule so many interviews while also performing on a full time job, but there was great visibility and also flexibility throughout the process. The team is pretty friendly and easy to talk to, although still very determined and focused on their questions.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Spotify in Aug 2021
