J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Booking.com en mai 2022
Entretien
First I had call with 2 Engineering Managers, general questions regarding management. 2nd phase was system design interview. Then code review interview was scheduled. During this interview, it was figured out that I was provided with incorrect code review link. Guy said that they will re-schedule interview and send proper link. Then booking.com told me that I failed system design interview. That's nonsense because 2 weeks before that they said that I succeeded and scheduled 3rd phase. Summary: 3 phases took almost 2 (!!!!) months. The whole hiring process is a total mess, during 2 months I talked with around 10 people and there is no guarantee that I would work with any of them if I got hired. I am shocked with such low level of processes in true IT company

Q: How do motivate individuals in the team?
Q: How do you grow talent in the team?
Q: System design online exercise
Applied then ghosted for 1 month. Then the recruiter contacted me and asked to book an interview (system design).
Then I got ghosted again for two weeks after the interview. I assumed I failed but after two weeks recruiter congratulated me saying I passed with flying colors and they would like to continue with me. =)
For the next 1 hour interview, I have given them 24 time slots starting from a week from then.
This was one week ago, I am currently ghosted again =)
There are five more interviews, with this speed it would roughly take 7-8 months to complete the process.

Entretien
Interview process had 4 stages a) System Design Round b) Coding Round c) Stakeholder Management Round d) People Management Round I cleared the first 3 rounds and the recruiter told me that they are deciding the location of the role. After 1 week of waiting, recruiter told me that the role is on hold. I told her that I am open to other roles. She passed me to other recruiter who discussed the role with me and tole me that hiring manager is interested and he will schedule the last interview. After 2 days, I got an automated response saying the role is closed. I asked both the recruiters if there is another role but I got no response from them.
