Entretien
I initially had to create an HTML5/JS webapp using the Spotify Metadata Web API. Once this effort was deemed worthy I had a phone screen to go over my solution. The phone screen went well and I was invited to the office to interview for four hours in the following topics:
1) Overall development pattern discussion (pub/sub, MVC, etc) with some basic JS problems
2) Culture fit over 1:1 lunch
3) System design (build an app, what technologies would you use, how would you setup your database schema, etc)
4) Another review of my initial programming challenge with some algorithm-focused questions
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
This was for a JS-heavy role so if you don't know JS's nuances well you can easily get confused.
I was asking in three different contexts what the value of a variable and 'this' would be equal to for specific snippets of code.

The interview process was long and drawn out. It took 2.5 months with multiple delays and rearrangements from Spotify side. I can’t fault the actual interviewers, they were very nice and considerate, but the organisation of the process was very messy and disorganised. At the end I received a rejection with no feedback on Christmas Eve.
