Very simple. Not much. It can be improved. It had several bad questions. Some were not working . Their own system was not working well lol. So the interview experience was really bad to be honest. I don’t have much to say.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at KAYAK in Oct 2024
Interview
The recruiter sent me a take-home assignment and require me to finish it within 5 business days. There is no introduction call or other interactions. After I finish the assignment, the recruiter became ghosted and never heard any updates. It seems they are not going to proceed the hiring process. Those assignments are like been sent by bots.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Print your name. Print your answer to the hybrid setting. A hotel booking problem. They gave you all the classes and you need to complete them. Optimize the code to support high concurrency situation.
It was a very quick process and they were quite responsive with giving feedback. The questions were relevant and they made me feel comfortable during the interview. I had only 2 stages of interviews
