I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bitmovin (Klagenfurt am Wörthersee) in Apr 2018
Interview
Es fanden zwei Gespräche statt:
Das erste war ein Kennenlerngespräch zwischen den beiden direkten Vorgesetzten, wo versucht wird, festzustellen ob und wie gut man ins Team passt, welche Hobbies man hat, welche Ausbildung, Erfahrung etc.
Das zweite Gespräche war gleichzeitig ein Probetag. Hier wurden zunächst theoretische Fragen zu Softwareentwicklung generell sowie zum vorgesehenen Aufgabenbereich gestellt.
Anschließend musste eine Problemstellung bestmöglichst umgesetzt und abschließend kurz präsentiert werden (Was wurde wie gemacht und warum? Welche Probleme sind aufgetreten? Was konnte nicht umgesetzt werden bzw. wie würde man es machen?)
Interview questions [6]
Question 1
Kannst Du dir vorstellen, eine leitende Tätigkeit zu übernehmen?
Technical challenge where you need to prove proficiency in any of code languages, in my case picked java. 2 hours to hands-on a code and 30 minutes to explain to seniors engineers.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bitmovin (Wien) in Mar 2023
Interview
I had two online interviews.
The first one was behavioral: I talked about my background, my projects, and the reasons I applied.
The interview is very relaxing and no stressful at all.
The second one was technical: I was given a few hours to implement a small library.
I had some difficulties in this last interview, but the interviewers were really understanding.
I think they appreciated the way I explained my thought process and the way I critically examined my solution, admitting its flaws and how it could have been better implemented. So I was given a second chance to finish the library.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bitmovin in Mar 2022
Interview
The interview process consisted of multiple rounds, where I got to meet future team members and could always ask questions if I had any. Everyone was very nice and patient.
I always knew what the next step is going to be and how it will look like. The coding interview was an interesting insight of what my future tasks would look like, I also got an opportunity to reflect on the coding interview and also got useful feedback.
