I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Tampa, FL) in Dec 2017
Interview
I interviewed from Tampa, for a role in Seattle. The first round was a phone interview of an hour. The next two rounds were Skype rounds (an hour each), and the final round was a two hour Skype interview. Needless to say, there was hardcore coding involved in all rounds. The final round was kind of like a panel round wherein members of the team came in and questioned me during the coding session. The process began on the 30th of November, 2017 and concluded on the 12th of January, 2018.

Question 1
Unfortunately, due to an NDA that I signed, I cannot reveal any questions that were asked. But please be thorough with your coding basics, algorithms, and data structures. They don't need a right answer. They essentially gauge you on the approach you take in attempting to solve the given problem.
One phone screen, up front, and the final round of interviews was four one-hour sessions. The two non-technical interviews were only 45 minutes. One was a coding question, and the other was a system design question.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you handled conflict in the workplace.
Process involves having two coding challenges to be solved which are medium in difficulty, problems where asked in terms of sliding window, HashMap based questions. And in system design I have asked my current projects and designing scheduler etc. Interview process was great but its little lengthy to recieve an offer.

I was contacted directly by a recruiter from the company about an open role. The first call went fine, and they mentioned there would be next steps. After that, nothing—no follow-up, no feedback, not even a rejection message. I followed up politely but got no response. It’s disappointing when companies don’t respect candidates’ time or close the loop after interviews.
