I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Agoda
Interview
After getting interviewed by them each year for the past 5-6 years, it seems that either:
1) They think too highly of themselves
2) They don't know what they are looking for;
This is why you see openings for roles (SOAP in the past, god knows what they are named now) in Agoda is perpetual.
Pleasant conversation and experience with first line seniors/hiring managers but absolutely atrocious experiences with those who are ranked Directors and above. Not only they act like they're clever and know-it-all, but they come across as arrogant and looks down on candidates. Most of them or expatriate rejects from the West who descend to Bangkok and impose their superiority anyways, so I am not in the least bit surprised.
Officially will never apply or respond to recruiters bearing the name AGODA ever again.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Deliver multiple business cases across People, HR, Ops, Supply, Beds, Rooms etc.
Detailed with assessment test that do not reflect the duties or skills of the role applied for. Quick response time on the first point of contact. Would be insightful to recieve Shl results and summary automatically as part of the service
1 HR interview + 3 interviews (1 take-home data analysis case study presentation) they really gril you to see if you know your stuff well so be prepared for follow up questions
Very long and consist of many rounds. 1. Case interview 2. Data case pitching 3. Final case interview. All conducted in english. Need business knowledge. Some case is similar to consulting.
