Interview
The process was OK and the interviewers were friendly. After I got rejected however I was offered no explanation or feedback from the recruiter which left me with bad taste.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at King (Barcelona) in Jan 2023
Interview
Got a first interview where the person got to know me and my experience. After delivering and choosing the role that was best for me, I got told to wait until contacted again. Around 6 weeks later, I got an email from the person that interviewed me telling me that a new person from HR would set up a meeting with the head of the team. After some time (2 or 3 weeks) I got the second interview. The interviewer was amazingly polite and had concrete questions. A pretty good experience. After this, I got told that the person from HR would contact me with the tech test. Since I didn't have news and I wanted the position, I sent a few emails but was told to wait. After 2 weeks, I sent a new email asking for an update. The new person told me that due to a decision made the week prior, they had frozen all recruitment for this position. This did not sit well with me, since I was the one that had to email to get this update. Around 3 months of pretty much waiting for updates to get told that it was frozen was an awful feeling. The other 2 people involved were pretty much supportive and handled the situation really well, which I really appreciate.

Interview
Once applied, if they like your candidature. You make a hirevue video interview where you answer some questions, and then a couple of code tests. After that, depending on your answers they tell you to make 2 last interviews. One it will be about code, I found it easy, if you have clear ideas you won't find a problem solving them. The other, it's about how or what you did in X situation. There is were I think I got rejected. The situations respond to comunicación and teamwork related skills. Due personal circumstances, it's something that I lack and they must consider it critic.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at King (Barcelona) in Aug 2020
Interview
Got a message from an external recruiter, spoke to him and he sent my CV to them.
Received an email with an invite for an interview (which contained the wrong position name).
Had a one hour interview with two developers, video chat. Was pretty confusing, they apparently didn't really know what they were doing there and didn't know what to really ask, and there was a lot of awkward silences.
After a 4 week wait (which was expected since they said they were going out on holiday), I get an automatic email stating that, "as we discussed previously, we won't move forward with the process. Please give us feedback".
Problem is, there was no other contact whatsoever, so it was a big surprise to get this automatic email.
Would not recommend, unless you as that they prepare.
