I applied online. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2021
Interview
Initial call with HR, One hacker rank challenge. After 2 follow-ups I was told that I would be moving to a virtual 4 round interview. after few days received an email with scheduled interview rounds without asking if I am avaiable to interview for that day, but there is an option to re-schedule it which I used as I had some project deadlines. What I don't understand is why will Expedia HR not reach out to us before sending an email with the interview schedule?
Later came the virtual interview day, interviewers was cool and asked about past experience, system design, and ds questions. I did decently well and was expecting a positive response.
Now here is where my overall experience became negative. I have not received any update/feedback regarding the interview outcome for 1 week. I have sent a couple of follow-up emails asking for interview result. Finally, I receive an email from HR saying that she is following up with the Hiring Manager, first forward two days still no update from HR, I just checked the workday portal which says not selected, which I understand it could of many reasons. What I don't understand is why would they not take some time to send an automated email or take some time to let us know how the interview outcome when we take time out of working hours to interview with them. The sad part is the HR previously worked for Google and was expecting more from her.
There are actually 4 rounds of interviews other than screening call with the recruiter. I got assessment invite after the screening call and after clearing the assessment got invite for 3 interviews each 1hr. 3 interviews are technical containing questions from previous experiences, coding problem, system design. Got rejected in the final interview
This was a screening call at the start with the recruiter, where she asked several questions about my previous experience and background and explained about the company and about the job requirements.

Interview
Started with Initial phone screen, then hiring manager round. Final round was with two principal engineers. The whole process was easy to moderate, generally knowing about our experience and analyzing our skills.
