I applied online. I interviewed at Sabre (Dallas, TX) in Jun 2016
Interview
I read the job description on LinkedIn and applied on Sabre's website. I was invited for an on-site interview directly. I requested a phone screening first, but they insisted on the plan. Anyways, C++, the language of choice there, was not listed in my resume but instead I had Java. I was familiar with most of the numeric optimization methods they utilized, and I was asked about them. I stated I wasn't exposed to RM, but I was asked an RM question.
Finally, I received a call a week after the interview with the excuse that the company wanted to move forward with a candidate with more coding skills. I was not even asked a coding question during the entire interview :)
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
Elaborate on the experiences listed on your resume.
We have n number of flights that connect passengers to another flight. Seat fare for each feeder flight is different. We would like to know how many seats to open for each of these feeder flights. Can you model that.
What is your thoughts about Saudi Arabia-Iran tension in the Middle East? (And a bunch of questions around this, asked by a hiring manager, during the interview-lunch)
