I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Airbnb in Feb 2023
Interview
Recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn. They had a waiting period for the technical phone screen to be scheduled. After a long time gave the interview finally. No response for days. Finally when I emailed the recruiter they sent me a generic rejection email from no-reply@airbnb. The recruiter couldn't inform me directly? How long does it take to send a personal email???

Question 1
Trie question, part one was easy, second was leetcode hard
Pretty standard engineering interview. Recruiter call, technical interview, system design. They also had a code review interview that I had never seen before. I thought it was a little trickier than average, but not horrible. Sucks that if you don't move to the next round you can't reapply for a year.
