It seems like Spotify referrals are hard to come by on Blind. If you did not get a referral, did you get in by pure luck of the draw? I’ve messaged recruiters but I’d imagine their volume is massive. (Looking for a non-tech role) Spill the secrets for the rest of us..
Thank you. I just DM’ed you.
Spotify recruiters really suck. the whole interview process is a mess thanks to them.
Did you recently interview with Spotify, or do you work at Spotify?
I interviewed recently: last week onsite, where in the middle of it the recruiter told me one interview is cancelled and needs to be rescheduled. It got rescheduled 4 days later, no one showed up
DM for PayPal if interested
I applied for engineering roles at Spotify many times over the last 4 years. Got a call 3 months back for the first time. Gave an interview, got the offer and I rejected it for another better offer :p
a DS manager reached out to me and referred me (got a solid offer eventually). i had just gotten an auto rejection from spotify maybe 7 months before lol and also most ppl i referred got auto rejected smh
One of my teammates joined Spotify and convinced me to join there too. They talked to the hiring manager and recruiter directly along with the referral, so it was easy for me to get the interview. I have referred a lot of people since joining and they received no response, so I have already given up on referring people. The whole process sucks.
I applied via linkedin and somehow it worked out. Started a couple of weeks ago. Still cant believe my luck
Our referral process sucks. Our recruiters generally suck. It’s pretty much not worth it putting referrals in, because you gotta move hell to make anyone listen on the other side. I applied many years ago when we were just 500 employees, got lucky. DM for non-tech roles. Pls post link to CV and role you are interested in. If I think there’s a fit, I’ll gladly help. For US roles: we don’t sponsor visa atm, in general it’s also difficult in Europe. So ideally you already have a work permission for the country you apply for.
