I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Zalando (Berlin) in Feb 2022
Interview
I'm writing this review after seeing the other interview experiences here, As posted by other candidates I did not see any rude behavior by the interviewer. The interviewer was very calm and was helping me to resolve the issue whenever I was stuck. Overall a great experience.

Other Senior Software Engineer interview reviews for Zalando
intial call with recruiter and then a coding assessment test. coding was leetcode medium level questions. after that was a live coding interview. for approx 1 hour and then a systems design interview for designing a payment system.
The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Zalando (Berlin) in Oct 2025
Interview
The interviewer was looking desperately tired and unfocused. Didn't join the interview on time. I had to find someone else to ping him to join.
The questions were generic and related. However, it took 2 weeks for the interviewer to send the results of a basic questionnaire to move forward.
I was overall hugely disappointed with that.
