J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Ubisoft (Milan) en juil. 2017
Entretien
I was called almost one week after I sent my Cv.
HR invited me to take part to a game design selection test followed by an interview the following week.
The selection test was held in the studios and lasted three hours. The candidates had to create a concept, five mechanics and three levels. The test had to be written in english.
After lunch I was interviewed by the lead designer.
I was asked about what I had done in the selection test, the last games I had played, my previous working experiences, my favourite game, what I would have expected to do during my standard working day, why I had chosen Ubisoft. The interview lasted almost half of an hour and started in english (and then went on in italian).
After the interview they told me I will have been contacted in two weeks regardless of the result. Actually they sent me an e-mail with a negative response after five weeks.
If I passed the selection I would have been invited for a second interview with the creative director (or the producer or the studio manager).

Horrible HR, sent me a google calendar invite without even contacting me before hand. During the meeting they were moving around the studio, losing connection, and I could hardly hear their voice. They don't respect the people they are interested in.
For a first interview with a HR person, it became a technical interview right away and they obviously didn't know what they were talking about but asking additional questions, without having a real understanding of what we were talking about.

Question 1
Technical questions, many of them, during the first HR interview
It was a brief chat to understand my level of game design and perception. We had a simple discussion on soft and hard currency. It was relatively a fun discussion overall

What type of soft currency was used in your previous game?

it was slow, but easy in every aspect, don't be scared of their questions. Everyone who interviews is great at what they do. The recruiters are very slow at getting back to you.
