I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Spotify (New York, NY) in Dec 2015
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter within two weeks from Spotify in NYC. The recruiter was very unprofessional, as he would not respond to my responses. A few months later, I was contacted by another recruiter and the process was smooth from there. An initial phone call with this new recruiter, followed by a purely technical discussion on security mechanisms and approaches.

How would you explain XSS to a non-technical person.
Initially there is a multiple choice test which consists of standard questions about security.
After that there is a call where the recruiter asks the typical questions about biggest failures, strengths etc.
