I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Booking.com (Amsterdam) in Jul 2015
Interview
Recruiter got in contact via email a bit over a month after I applied for the position. After a brief phone conversation we scheduled a technical interview. Before the interview, I was given four programming questions and asked to submit my answers on a collaborative text editor. The technical interview involved more questions on their online platform. The interview was awkward, with only one interviewer ever speaking and a lot of silence. I heard back two days later via email that they wouldn't be inviting me to an interview in Amsterdam.
