I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tripadvisor (Newton, MA) in May 2015
Interview
Their recruiter reached out to me, asking if I would be interested in a tech leader / manager position. Ask my Salary requirement and set me up with an initial interview. After initial interview with good feedback I moved onto a technical interview. Recruiter called me right away about how good the interview went and how impressed the interviewer was. And they'll set up a face to face interview. 10 days gone by with no response from them. Email the recruiter and got a response that my Salary requirement was too high and they decided not to move forward. Why did they waste my time since I gave them my salary requirement right from the state.
The interview consisted of a coding interview, 2 system design interviews + coding, and a culture fit interview. Interviews was well-prepared and conducted in a friendly atmosphere. Interviewers were helpful.
Overall the process was really difficult (7 interviews overall) but they decided pretty quickly and the interviews were all comprised in 3/4 days.
Most of the interviewers were nice and tried to make your life easy when you hit a dead-end.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Tripadvisor in Aug 2024
Interview
After the interview, I had a biter feeling, and I was ghosted by a recruiter who did not provide the interview result to the manager. It seems they are just collecting candidates' data.
