I applied online. I interviewed at Booking.com (Amsterdam)
Interview
I had 4-5 rounds of interviews, both by phone and in person. The process was smooth and the recruiter shared regular updates and practical feedback. They focus a lot on cultural fit with the broader team, so understanding the company values is important.

Question 1
Share an example of a time you solved a technical problem.
The process was intense with long waiting times in between rounds. I had to wait 6 weeks for a reply on my application. 3 weeks after the recruiter call. 2,5 weeks after the hiring manager call.
Very effective, to the point, recruiter was very supportive. Included 3 steps, with a case study; which was quite demanding. The process was as follows: recruiter call, first interview - general, case study and culture fit interview.
