I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Airbnb in Oct 2018
Interview
The interview process consisted of two back to back technical interviews with one question each followed by a cross-functional (like behavioral) interview after passing that round. The technical interviews were conducted by engineers and the cross-functional review can be conducted by someone in any role, including ones outside of the role you are applying to.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral: When have you championed the mission for someone else? One of Airbnb's core values is champion the mission (see website for more details). When have you brought up someone else's worked and extolled their virtue?
“Three rounds in total. After a short recruiter screen, I had two 45-minute technical coding interviews on Zoom/CoderPad (data structures, algorithms, edge cases, complexity) followed by one 45-minute cross-team values interview focused on collaboration, ownership, communication, and product sense. No heavy system design. All interviews were virtual, interviewers were friendly and left time for questions. The process took about two weeks from scheduling to decision.
