I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Glovo (Barcelona) in Oct 2021
Interview
I got through recruiter interview.
I didn't get through the live coding session, got generic feedback as my experience, skill set doesn't match. They didn't provided any concrete reason. Overall a negative experience since I was interviewed by two new joined people. One was 4 months Asian person and other one was Spanish person at 10 Months, they both had their own conflicts during the interview, Spanish person didn't like to answer to some questions I raised it, was passed Asian, and former didn't like what he answered. It s like Asian person was more willing to guide. Overall I completed all 3 questions with optimal solutions. I was asked to stop when I am writing test cases to last question.
After the interview I raised some questions around the team i might potentially work if selected, asked what they are doing in terms of tech. Spanish person passed this questions to Asian person just joined the company 4 months ago, obviously he doesn't have clear idea on this or the process. After that Spanish person asked me to raise these questions to HR. After that they mentioned they will be get in touch with next steps.
Even though I noticed these conflicts, I was still confident or hopeful since i completed all three with optimal solutions. However I was rejected with generic message without any feedback. Well with all these what I felt Glovo is not into Diversity / Inclusions as they claim. I wouldn't recommend this process to anyone.
