Yeah, I also have my email connected to Gravatar and I was really surprised what picture I had set up, lol. I did it a long time ago. What is still not clear for me is why doesn't the Spotify account picture show up. I tried with a brand new account that doesn't have a connection to Gravatar and the shown picture is one generated from the name. Really weird.](https://hashnode.com/posts/how-to-authenticate-with-spotify-using-auth0/61546be4414f78089df3cb10/comment/615b4686ad6beb6f6506f60e#reply-615d6bd238ba5c7155d58f67) Reply · Article · Oct 6, 2021 · [How to Authenticate With Spotify Using Auth0 🟢](https://hashnode.com/posts/how-to-authenticate-with-spotify-using-auth0/61546be4414f78089df3cb10) [Nice one, Elisa.

From my experience, it is quite normal for them. Basically the time you spend preparing for the interview is like a small internship 😂 No experience. That's impressive. Getting up to the level of FAANG only after a few months of preparation considering you had a full time job as well.
