Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Spotify.
Marketing Technology Manager
I applied for this role when it had a different title, using LinkedIn. I completed the first interview round. It was a relaxed conversation where they asked about my experience and its relevance to the position. The recruiter got back to me about 2-3 weeks later with a rejection. I thought the call went well, but Spotify receives a lot of applicants and selects the best candidates.
- Could you list the martech tools you've worked with previously?
Campus Ambassador
It was pretty smooth and chill overall, they asked general questions about music interests and the work I’ve done in college. It wasn’t nerve wracking or anything. The interviewer made me feel comfortable.
- Can you tell me about the unique features of the Spotify app?
Advertising Manager
I had an initial screening with the recruiter and then moved on to the second round with the hiring manager. The hiring manager seemed uninterested and distracted from the start. They didn't ask many meaningful questions before stating they had an appointment to get to. I felt like I wasn't really being considered and it was a bit of a waste of my time and energy. A few days later, I got a rejection email saying they chose another candidate and that I should be proud to have gotten an interview because they are so selective. Overall, it was a disappointing experience.
