I applied online. I interviewed at Adyen (Amsterdam) in Sep 2022
Interview
Several rounds. First round with one person, low level. Friendly chit-chat about how "great" the company is. The second round is similar to the first, with two people low level as well. The third round is a case you have to prepare, where the questions go so specific, that if you have no experience in the industry it is close to impossible to answer. That is where it really shows, that the inclusivity and different backgrounds nonsense they try to sell is not true. You need to be highly knowledgable on the sector and the company, otherwise you have no chance. The feedback provided after was also proof of that. Not recommended.

Question 1
Very basic, often cliche questions, like why we should choose you, what are your weaknesses, why Adyen etc. But I suppose the level of their effort to show any interest in you and the quality of questions should not fool anybody, they expect fintech expert top-notch answers.
Applyed via Lindkedin and from there forwaded to the company website. I had an interview with the recruiter, did not pass to next stage. Not sure why and what was the thresholds to proceed
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Adyen
Interview
Boa experiência, screening call com time de rh foi bem conduzida e clarificou bastante dúvidas.
Adyen está em um momento de forte expansão e o Brasil tem boa representatividade no business, assim como México.

Question 1
Perguntas em inglês e perguntas direcionadas a gestão de pessoas
general behavioural interviews + a take home case study + presentation.
tbh it feels a bit like they're just trying to phish for free ideas for their own business expansion as I was told I did very well on the case but was eventually rejected due to some "background fit reasons", which they could've obviously spotted during the CV screening round or the following behavioural round, before they asked me to invest tremendous time to prep for the take home assignment
