      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Zalando (Berlin) in Nov 2023

      Interview

      Took them 2 months to schedule the first interview. I went through 6 interviews but never spoke to a talent recruiter, all the interviews were scheduled in an automated way through Gcal with no detail on how to prepare at all. Interview invite would only say the name of the interviewer and the type of interview (e.g. tech leadership). After completing 6 interviews and spending 6 hours on this company, the rejection came through an automated email that wasn’t even proofread. The email said you could reply if you want feedback on their decision, which I did, but they never responded. Very impersonal. I don’t know what happened to Zalando, but this is really unprofessional and disrespectful to candidates who spent so much time on your company.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      - what does your ideal role look like - how would you measure success for your product - tell us about a time you made a mistake - how do you handle dependencies

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Zalando (Berlin) in Feb 2025

      Interview

      Courteous interviewers. Takes a really long time, and there's a huge gap between rounds with no communication from the team on next steps. Emails go unanswered. Lots of overlapping questions / unnecessary rounds - had 7 overall.
