I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Expedia Group (London, England) in Feb 2016
Interview
I have applied for a position online, and received an email from a recruiter about 5 days later to let me know that position was already filled, but that they had another similar position currently open for which I might be suited if of interest to me. After reviewing position's requirements, the initial phone interview was arranged with a recruiter. The recruiter was not a native English speaker and I did have to ask him to repeat a few questions due to my inability to understand the accent. Having been working in finance industry for a little while, I have had quite a few interviews under my belt - I thought this one went quite well, and the questions were more general rather than specific. On a side note, it was probably the least professional interview I have had and maybe it had to do with the difficulty of understanding the recruiter, but I also thought the recruiter was not as professional or organised as any of the others I came across and had difficulty answering my questions about the position and the company and also seemed a bit confused on a few things. I received a rejection email 3 days after the phone interview took place, mentioning that there were better qualified candidates. Fair enough! But if I am totally honest, I think this is not something that recruiter could determine from the conversation that was had. Maybe it was just a personality thing - I'll never know. But I was really put off by this experience that I am unlikely to apply for any other jobs with Expedia. Shame really as it has been awarded best place to work in the UK. But first impressions really do matter and it goes both ways - and the impression I got of this company was not a very positive one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me more about your professional experience that I would not be able to find on your CV; within last year, tell me about one new thing that you have learned; tell me about one thing / goal you set for yourself this year, etc. And then the usual - what's your current salary, notice period with your current employer, how are you eligible to work in the UK, etc.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Seattle Heights, WA) in Apr 2024
Interview
It was a normal process. The excell assessment was very difficult though. Could not be completed in 30 mins.
The excel test doesnt make any sense. Other vise the interview process was similar to other companies.

A time you trusted your teammate unconditionally.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Phone screen, then video interview with hiring manager, followed by 4 panel interview with the team. Out of 4 different interviews for 4 separate Senior FA roles I only ever heard back from the recruiter once with no offer. The other 3, they ghosted me. While I generally enjoyed interviewing with Expedia, I’m no longer interested in pursuing a role with them based on their ghosting/ignoring with follow up at the end of the interview process. At first it seemed like a good work culture but this practice indicates to me they might not value candidates as much as I initially suspected.
