I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Adyen (Amsterdam)
Interview
Applied online, screening interview on Skype with two members of the underwriting team and then an in person interview with another two members of the team. The process included a further interview with a business case then a fourth interview with the board. I only got as far as the second interview. Process was efficient and well organized, the interviewers were all very nice.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
So many questions about why I wanted to work in the payments industry and more specifically for Adyen. I lost count of how many variations of this question I was asked along with questions about the company’s core values. Also a big focus on working with developers on the tech side of onboarding. Although both of these things are very typical of tech startups so not so surprising. Otherwise all the usual interview questions.
Interview process has around 4-5 rounds of interviews including a case interview and the last round is with a management board member. In total it can take around 2 to 3 weeks to do a selection process.

Interview
6 rounds of interviews, each a 30-minute fit interview with multiple questions about your motivations, reasons for wanting to join Adyen, as well as what do you know about Adyen

Interview
Bad experience interviewing with Adyen, mainly because I applied for a specific position (CDD Analyst) but after the first interview got funneled through to their grad programme, NextGen, instead. This without me having any plans of taking on a new degree (which is a requirement for placing in the program to begin with).
It goes without saying that the second interview was extremely uncomfortable, as I basically had to convince two people (a "good cop" = HR lady, and a "bad cop" = NextGen Underwriting team lead) why I wanted a position I hadn't even applied for.
