I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Booking.com in Jan 2014
Interview
Contacted via Indeed.com
Phone interview with recruiter: Nothing special about it, just to know your goals, why you would like to join Booking.com, can you relocate, etc..
Then phone screening with developer. live coding. Three questions: file system search function (already posted before here), basic sql question for joining two table and grouping results (already posted here before) and business question about priorities.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most questions were normal. However they where trying to twist little to make sure you have deep understanding like. Like is this code will run forever, what about if we change to recursion, what about memory, etc.
