Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó más de 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Booking.com (Ámsterdam) en jun 2021
Entrevista
4 rounds interview. First was hacker rank online coding, second was code pair round where you need to code in front of 2guys, third was system design round where you have to develop solution and final was cultural fit round.
Before last round , HR was so sure about my selection that she shared me the rough idea of salary structure for my review if I am ok or not. When final round went good, their colleague came with status as reject without giving me the feedback of last round. Instead their colleague wrote, you rejected due to system design round whose feedback were already shared as positive and they gave me go-ahead for final round.
Now they are not replying to my legit and generous emails. This were not expected from bookings.com

cultural fit questions like why you want to come to Booking.com from finance to travel domain, what your motivation to join booking, what you expect from booking, where you want to see your future in booking, have you ever had a bad manager, how you handle issues etc
First there was coding challenge with 1 hour time which you do on your own, Then screening call in which you are asked general questions about your background and experience, then technical interview, then system design, and ultimately cultural fit.

The technical interview is Python only. In general not hard. First part is some Python coding with three sections. There is a second part which also has 3 parts but its about data aggregation and computing insight
Remote test, call with hr, followed by live coding session with fellow engineers, didn't make it further but good luck with the steps. Questions were not hard, I stressed too much

The first screening round consists of SQL and Python coding tasks. If you clear this screening round, you will be invited to the second round, which is an HR introduction call. During this call, the HR representative will discuss your motivation and assess your skills.
The third round is a live core Python coding session, where three data engineers will evaluate your Python programming abilities. The coding problem will be related to a booking platform, involving trip analysis queries that need to be implemented in Python.
The fourth round focuses on system design, and the fifth and final round is a behavioral interview.
