I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Expedia Group in Nov 2017
Interview
I was contacted by an in house recruiter in November 2017, she asked me about my current role, and if I'd be interested in relocating back home (Amman/Jordan), then she told me that I passed the screening process and that the next step will start in beginning of December.
Nobody contacted me until I sent a follow up email, then she apologized and told me that the next step of the screening will start in the beginning of January 2018, at that point they sent me a technical assignment that I solved and got feedback for right away (second week of January 2018) then I was told that I passed to the next step which will start in the second week of February.
I was contacted again to schedule 4 online interviews, 2 with Amman office and two more with London office, the interviews were easy, we talked about technology, culture and motivation to join the company. after that, I was never contacted again.
This was the most verbose and lengthy interview processes I have ever been through and ending it without any kind of feedback is so disrespectful and unprofessional, they just wasted my time without for nothing.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
What do you think about gender equality in the work place?
One phone screen, up front, and the final round of interviews was four one-hour sessions. The two non-technical interviews were only 45 minutes. One was a coding question, and the other was a system design question.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you handled conflict in the workplace.
Process involves having two coding challenges to be solved which are medium in difficulty, problems where asked in terms of sliding window, HashMap based questions. And in system design I have asked my current projects and designing scheduler etc. Interview process was great but its little lengthy to recieve an offer.

Question 1
Arrange letters with their decreasing frequency
Minimim meeting rooms required for person to attend give meeting schedules
I was contacted directly by a recruiter from the company about an open role. The first call went fine, and they mentioned there would be next steps. After that, nothing—no follow-up, no feedback, not even a rejection message. I followed up politely but got no response. It’s disappointing when companies don’t respect candidates’ time or close the loop after interviews.
