I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at ING (Amsterdam)
Interview
The inteview process was completely outsourced. It was quite disconnected and weird experience. I didn’t get any useful feedback, and my questions weren’t answered. Also the response times were very long, usually more than a week.
Firstly it was a test. Couple of months later I've had a call with manager and later with direct product owner. It has taken 2-3 weeks for final answer and enrollment.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ING (Bucharest, Bucuresti)
Interview
The interview process was smooth and well-structured, with technical questions that gradually increased in difficulty. This approach made the discussion feel comfortable, engaging, and gave me the chance to showcase my skills step by step.
The process had several rounds. It comprised an initial online tech assessment (some multiple choice questions and a sql and python exercise), HR chat, personality interview, case study and one final chat.
The case study was a take-home assignment to be discussed in an hour interview.
Overall they were professional and kind.
