I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tripadvisor (Newton, MA) in Oct 2010
Interview
I applied for an internship but went through a surprising interview process. I was first given a phone call, the recruiter went through my resume with me. We then scheduled a phone interview with a manager. After a few days I got on the phone with the manager who gave me several problems to solve on the phone. Those problems were mostly math and algorithms related. They were not that difficult but I was not expecting it. I was then given a programming assignment to complete within 48 hours. Even if I gave them calls and sent emails, so far they have never told me what they thought of my program.

How can you tell efficiently how many consecutive zero's are in a number without looping through its digits?
I applied online. I interviewed at Tripadvisor in Feb 2026
Interview
Good, although, sometimes struggling in providing you information about when interview will be leaving you wondering. Technical interview was good, I went into in uncertain as I wasn't sure about if I could solve a challenge. Recruiter was very nice and informative as well. Gutted to not progress onto next stages but they layout whole process for you and provide with you with feedback even if you fail the technical interview.
I hope to re-apply soon when I become more confident with approaching technical assessments cause these do not correlate with your day to day duties as SE.

I interviewed at Tripadvisor (Portugal)
Interview
Looks like a demanding process. I didn’t get through the initial stage interview due to not having great answers for the screening questions so I can’t tell much on what comes later
