I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Glovo (Barcelona) in Nov 2019
Interview
I haven't had a better interview experience so far and I've done 5-10 interviews with good tech companies.
I sent my application, the next day in the morning I get an email for a screening call. The email was very explanatory, detailing every step of the following interview and the possible next steps.
Interview stages:
- Screening call with the recruiter, generic typical questions and some easy tech ones.
I passed this so I received an email the same day with a detailed explanation of the next stage and a PDF of what to study and what to prepare with.
- Screening tech call, I was asked some tech concepts and tools that I use in line with the PDF that they sent me for the preparation.
Here comes the best part: I passed this so the next day I receive an email for the next stage and DETAILED VERBATIM feedback of the interviewer! That was great cause it showed some weaknesses that I had and what I needed to work with and improve. Next stage was a codility test:
- Codility test:2 problems in 2h. 1st seemed easy and 2nd quite hard at least for me.
Again received an email the next day inviting me to the panel interview.
- Panel interview was 5h long and was a typical panel interview: Behavioral interview, and 3 tech interviews (algorithmic, system design, software architecture design).
Overall seems like a long process but as they say it depends on your availability and lasts 2-3 weeks. That's great, as in my experience the recruiters take long to respond and usually the procedure takes at least 1 month.
Also the HR has done a great job sending detailed information of the next stage of the interview and allowing you to prepare properly.
I have a great feeling :)
I applied online. I interviewed at Glovo in May 2026
Interview
The HR interview experience itself was positive, the recruiter was friendly, professional, and the conversation seemed well aligned with both the role and my background.
What was disappointing was receiving a rejection the next day stating that the decision was made after reviewing my CV.
Since the interview had already taken place and my experience matched the role requirements quite closely, this felt confusing and somewhat unprofessional.
I’d appreciate a more thorough CV screening before scheduling interviews, to better respect candidates’ time.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Glovo (Madrid)
Interview
I have done two interviews: an HR one and a Technical (Live Coding) Interview. The HR interview was an easy one, asking about my technical background and experience. And the technical one was a medium-hard question interview.
I passed three interviews, including a presentation with a case study. Afterward, they told me their salary offer wasn't what I expected and that they would contact me again when the budget department spoke with me. Well, it turned out they scheduled another interview for a different position, this time with people from Portugal. It was completely different from what I had applied for.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me about my work experience and salary expectations, and whether I worked well under pressure.
