I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Adyen (Singapura) in Apr 2022
Interview
- First of all, I would say this is the most terrible interview experience
- The meeting was started late
- I feel the whole interview he is not keen on me and just asked all the questions on his screen to end the interview
- I notice that I'm not the only one as other people also commented on this part
- As a company who claimed care very much in culture and people, but I do not see the practice it in real life, at least not in this interview.
We include different people to sharpen our ideas?
We talk straight without being rude?
- When my turn to ask him many questions about the company and roles, he just answered in very brief way - feel want to end this call ASAP.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Adyen
Interview
It was a 5-step process:
1. Screening on why you applied to Adyen, why you want to move to NL, and general profile related questions by 2 devs
2. Codility Test which has 3 questions - 1 bug fix, 1 SQL, 1 feature implementation - make sure you save the code for feaature implementation for your reference for the next step
3. This involves 2 devs discussing with you the implementation and the decisions you took to implement the way you did. Again questions about why Adyen, why NL, etc are asked. Difference between encryption, hashing, and general computer science related questions related to the language (Java)
4. With the 2 senior/tech leads. Revolves around the same script of why Adyen, why NL, etc and the formula fit
5. Leadership interview with a member of the board. The same things about why Adyen, why NL, Adyen formula, etc
Too much reliance on the same type of questions, and still not sure what they expect from the candidate.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Adyen (Amsterdã) in Jul 2021
Interview
The interview process was explained in the first email:
1. Introductory interview
2. HackerRank test
3a. Technical interview 1
3b. Technical interview 2
4a. Adyen Formula Fit interview
4b. Board interview
So I did the 1 and it went pretty well, There were 2
software engineers and the questions are mostly about
yourself.
After a day or so, the recruiter gave me the Hackerrank assessment. I believe time was the main problem, and you should do good time management.
