I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Zalando
Interview
The interview process started good, consisted of 3 rounds, I received clear tasks in timely manner. I was waiting for a feedback about 2 months. And the feedback was that I passed the interview process as a number one candidate, but this position is no longer available. The company representative suggested me to wait until they will think about another opportunities for me within the company. But they never contacted me again and never responded to my emails after that.

Initial introduction interview with the recruiter and then hiring manager. I was tasked with an extensive case study as to what tools I would use, strategies and measurement. After presenting the case study to the hiring manager I had 15 minute interviews with team members.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What martech would you onboard? What would be your strategies?
The recruitment process at Zalando is pretty thorough but fair. After a quick HR screening, I had a skills test and a couple of interviews, focusing both on my technical skills and how I'd fit into the team. It’s well-organized, and although it takes a bit of time, you feel like they genuinely want to make sure you’re the right fit.
I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Zalando (Berlin)
Interview
The process is extremely confusing, as there seems to be a lack of communication between the recruiter and the hiring manager. They often provide conflicting information, leading to misalignment and misunderstandings throughout the hiring process.
