      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Booking.com (Melbourne) in Apr 2014

      Interview

      Applied online though an Australian job site (Seek.com). Got a call a few days later from a recruiter asking a few basic questions about willingness to move etc and to arrange a technical interview. Technical interview was about two weeks later with two engineers, one of whom didn't really speak. Took me through three questions writing code in an online tool and asked questions about my solutions. Guys were quite friendly and tried to help me out as I screwed things up.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Some stuff about ordering lists, exponential searches, very CS oriented.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Booking.com in Apr 2014

      Interview

      The interviewer asked some questions around some data-structures and some algorithms. Then asked me the complexity of my solution and asked if I could optimize my solution etc. They also asked me if I could suggest a couple of ways how I would strategize making money in a startup like booking.com. They explained some possibilities and asked me to suggest outside those trivial ones.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      one question was as under - "Symmetric Difference of Arrays" Input: two arrays of integers Output: one array of integers which occur in only one (not both) arrays Test case: Input: [ 1, 7, 8, 2, 4, 5 ] [ 3, 5, 1, 7, 6, 9 ] Output: [ 8, 2, 4, 3, 6, 9 ]
