Process involved about 6 interviews each 45-1hr long. No clear written information about the process, basic information in the interviews and no-one seemed to know the full picture of your application. Sometimes 3 interviews in 1 block requested, so be prepared to take half a day for multiple interviews.
A number of interviews were scheduled and were cancelled on the spot for various reasons (interviewer not aware of the interview, position no longer open for external candidates) - candidates' time not respected in the process at all.
The number of emails relating to the application and interviews are high.
Lots of opportunities to streamline. The work and potential colleagues in the team made a good impression.
Zalando is going through a restructure, lots of changes to jobs advertised, so be open to change and the advertised position being deleted midway through the process.
