Candidate-reported interview process

First, I had a chat with the internal recruiter, who kicked things off with some behavioral questions. Then, the recruiter went over some technical case scenarios, explaining them really well. After that, there was an interview with the technical team, where the recruiter laid out the expectations. Finally, I met with the hiring manager and team lead, and the recruiter did a good job explaining what to prepare for and what to expect.

It's usually a five-part interview process that starts with a recruiter chat, then you talk to the direct hiring manager, followed by a case interview, then a leadership round, and finally a board interview. You'll stay in touch with the recruiter between each interview. They also do a standard background check, which is pretty normal these days, but probably even more so at Adyen because it's a bank.

Had a great interview experience overall. It was 5 rounds in total, nothing too out of the ordinary. Started with HR, then met with peers, followed by team leads, the support lead, and finally a board member. The questions were pretty standard and everyone was friendly.
