Scaleway was interesting. It had some classic technical whiteboard interviews but the difficulty and the topics did seem appropriate. It also included an escape game with some other candidates interviewed on the same day. The HR was watching us through the cameras. It is hell, but I kinda enjoyed it. We also got offers even though we didn’t manage to escape. The offices were very weird, some kind of old luxury hotel in the centre of Paris, but with strange decorations. For example the salary negotiation was done in some kind of white cocoon meeting room with a table of white fur from memory. I enjoyed the walls full of motherboards and the design of some rooms. Never seen anything like this since. They moved to another building since my visit though.

We had cheese fondue at lunch and while I got an offer I didn’t work for them after all so I have a positive memory of this experience.
