I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Glovo (Barcelona) in Feb 2021
Interview
It was a neutral experience. HR was really good in responding on time. Interview level leetcode easy-medium .
I was able to reach till 4th round but then I read over Glassdoor and Blind that salary offered is less and not much saving for those coming from India. I then reached out to HR as salary negotiation was not done in initial round and I told my expectation.
To my surprise what was offered was way way less. After deducting the tax slab and minimum monthly expenditure(without and weekend trip and luxury) I was surprised that I was saving 15k less then I am saving today in India.
The reason they outsource people from India, salary in India is less if we convert the salary they offer in INR but after deducting taxes and expense we won't save much.
If you wish to travel to Europe only opt for booking, faang .. else you will spend more then saving.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Glovo (Barcelona)
Interview
A 30 minutes interview with a recruiter talking about my expectations, some technical general questions. Days after, I received an email:
"I'm writing to let you know that unfortunately, we will not be moving forward with your application for Senior Backend Engineer. We have evaluated both your background and the possibilities looking forward, as it is only combining these two that we understand whether you have the profile we are looking for."
I answer by asking for feedback to know the reasons and improve.
They never answer me. And the next day they send me an email asking for feedback about the process. But they never answer me with my feedback.
The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Glovo (New York, NY) in Apr 2020
Interview
Very long and tedious process with several redundant steps. One interview was with a guy with a very strong (non Spanish) accent, which was very difficult for me to understand. Another one the interviewer was not interested and very passive without providing any feedback.
