I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Glovo (Madrid) in Oct 2022
Interview
It was a long process with several interviews. The experience, in general, wasn't good. Some interviewers were rude, and the recruiter was completely annoying. The funny part was that the recruiter used to send me all the possible questions I could possible get before each interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
- Coding exercises, medium leetcode - System design: they asked me to design Glovo - Something similar to a component design interview: asked me to sketch the class diagram of a chat application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Glovo in Aug 2022
Interview
It took three interviews (live coding, architecture, behavioural) and almost two months only to learn that the feedback is 'extremely positive', but the company 'can't make an offer' at this stage due to some internal reorganisation.
Overall, quite satisfied with the interviewers themselves. Extremely dissatisfied with the way the company handles prospective candidates after such time investments.
Live coding: Valid parentheses. Write an algorithm that given a string containing any combination of various types of parentheses (round, curly, square) determines if the input string is valid.
