I had a total of 6 rounds, including the recruiter screen. The process was structured and value-driven, with a strong emphasis on Expedia’s leadership principles.
1. Recruiter Phone Screen - Initial conversation covering background, role fit, and interview logistics.
2. Hiring Manager Interview - Focused on my background, product experience, and overall skill set. Discussion included previous projects, decision-making, and stakeholder management.
3. Panel – Four 1:1 Interviews - Each round was mapped to two Expedia values, and interviewers looked for both behavioral and functional competencies.
- Two Product Rounds: Behavioral and cross-functional questions, including product thinking, stakeholder collaboration, customer focus, and prioritization.
- Two Engineering/Data Rounds: Primarily focused on data skills, including writing SQL queries and answering data-driven product scenario questions. Technical depth was moderate and tied to real business use cases.
