I applied online. I interviewed at Booking.com in Aug 2017
Interview
I applied through LinkedIn. They sent me a link to do HackerRank within a week.
The test contained 4 programming questions that you have to solve in only 75 minutes. I found it completely impossible to solve these questions in such a short time, I didn't have time to finish more than 2 questions. I think the only thing they can judge is how fast and good you are at solving these type of tests, and not how good you will be at work...
As expected, two days after taking the test I got an email saying that they are unable to proceed with my application.

First a very easy coding test, After passing the coding test, a personality test is conducted, and then an HR call is made. I got rejected after an HR call.
