I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Agoda (Bangkok) in Jul 2017
Interview
Interview was pretty easy. First of all that was Skype call to meet with interviewer and to describe all my experience and current work position, and also to understand, what ways exists at Agoda to go through.
Then, it was "homework" task about high load REST application with concurrency problems. Interesting enough task, where you can think a lot and suggest different ways to make it well.
After task, there was another one Skype call to discuss suggested solution and and answer about all pros and cons of this solution.
Then, after few days, I was invited to Bangkok for face-to-face meeting and interview. This was 4-days trip including one full day for interviews with 4 development managers from different teams.
During these interviews we also discussed my previous experience and career wishes. Also during the conversation we worked together to solve a variety of random problems and processes from the backend API, such as "Today everything is working well, and tomorrow we see a huge load, what are we going to do.".
Pretty nervous day, especially for non-native English speakers, but people were friendly and understanding.

Interview
The interview process was very smooth.
I was asked the question to find the minimum sum pairs in the array, and return all of them. The interviewer was very helpful and supportive.
I applied online. I interviewed at Agoda (Bangkok) in Nov 2025
Interview
Totally the worst experience. If you don't consider me as a candidate, please DONT ask me to do an online assessment.
I submitted the application on Nov 3, 2025, and completed the OA on Nov,10 2025 with 70% required time and over 90% test cases. Two days later, I received the rejected letter.
I'm never treated in this way, completed the OA but the interview is no show-up and waste both-side time

Interview process:
They will provide the interview process details before processing for the interviews.
There will be 2 Technical rounds
Technical 1: DSA medium to hard level leetcode problem.
I was ask to find the minimum path weight to reach at point y from a arbitrary point x in a 2d grid. (Graph problem BFS traversal).
Technical 2: HLD round there is no pattern in HLD round they can ask any random. I was ask to design a vendor specific functionality in agoda. So vendors can hit agoda API to get there respective bookings.
I was able to clear both the rounds and got the mail for proceeding for the HM and Talent Acquisition round but after a week they drop my profile all of the sudden without any discussion
