Expedia Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Phone Interview followed by OnSite Interview.

Negotiation Details – Here is the salary and sign up bonus. It was good enough so I accepted.

Interview Details – I was contacted by an Executive Recruiter who spent about 30 minutes with me but couldn't answer any of my questions about the business. She said she was new and really didn't know much. 3 months later I got a 'reject' email from the system. Really? They should do better than this. Very disappointing.

Interview Details – Online application, contacted by recruiter, 3 phone screen interviews.
1. recruiter-phone screen about background
2. project manager- online coding
3. hiring manager

The hiring manager was 4 hours late than the arrangement. After that, no response for about 2 months. I asked the recruiter through email, they said "this position is moved to another country!". Good luck to your interview.

Interview Details – I applied online and used my Linked In profile to apply. Within days, I noticed a recruiter from the company viewed my profile. I was contacted via email to set up my first phone interview. I had my FIRST phone interview. It lasted about 35 minutes and was the generic HR prescreen. The recruiter spoke mostly about what the position called for with a HEAVY HEAVY stress on sales which is a different feel from the posted job description. She scheduled me for a second phone interview which was later rescheduled by the interviewer because she was under the weather. That second phone interview lasted about 50-60 minutes. You are put totally on the spot to provide a role play situation of what you would do if the position was yours. Super uncomfortable and unexpected but I fought through it. Apparently, it well as they scheduled me for an in person interview for 3 hours at their office with 3 different people.

Interview Details – The first round consisted of a phone interview with the hiring manager. The questions were straight forward and asked about previous experiences. However, the interviewer was extremely rude and abrupt. Towards the end of the interview while asking standard questions about his department and current operations, he hung up with no instructions of next steps and directly told me not to contact him for any questions b/c he's really busy and won't have time to answer them. If this guy is going to be my future manager, I would rather pass on the opportunity. Having this rude hiring manager interview terribly represents Expedia's culture and senior management. At least be polite and remember that you are representing the company as well.

Reason for Declining – The hiring manager was very rude during the interview and decided I would not be a good fit for his department.

Interview Details – I had a very bad experience with Expedia. After a phone interview, they arranged to fly me to their headquarters. Unfortunately my flight got delayed due to bad weather and I was told by them to cancel my trip. They called me next day morning to tell me that they have given offer letters to two candidates for that role and they will only give me a chance to interview at their HQ if any of these candidates reject the offer.

Interview Details – Applied online and initial screen was a short (15 minute) phone interview with the HR consultant. This was more informational about the position and not difficult at all. Second phone interview was with the hiring manager and lasted about 45 minutes. Very relaxed and no difficult or unexpected questions. Primarily questions regarding prior work experience and objectives.

Interview Details – Had two phone interviews. The first was with a recruiter from another state. She was very nice, easy to talk to, and really encouraging. Asked me about my background, why I chose the major I did, and what I do now. She also spent quite a while just explaining the company's structure and where this position would fit in. She let me know that she was going to have me do another phone interview with Expedia's Director of Design. I was feeling confident for that interview and was under-prepared. He was impossible to read - just asked a series of open-ended questions and let me talk until I stopped, then he would say "okay," and ask another question. Thinking that it would make me seem well-rounded, I talked too much about the fact that my experience included a lot more than visual design. When I followed up with the recruiter, she let me know that this made me seem like a generalist, when they wanted a specialist.
