Application
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at GetYourGuide (Berlin) in Jul 2023
Interview
Quite usual process with few interviews + presentation of case study. Very good experience with leading recruiter, always helpful and proactive. The only downside was the length of the whole process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions related to the case study, besides pretty standard regarding my experiences
The overall interview process spanned nearly two months, starting with an HR screening and culminating in a final interview round with the Director of the team. It included an interview with the Hiring Manager, the submission of a case study, and a subsequent presentation to the Hiring Manager along with a relevant stakeholder. Following these discussions and presentation, there was a stakeholder interview and a final Behavioral round with the Director. Although the interactions were positive throughout all the rounds, I received rejection feedback after the final round, which focussed on the 3rd round (Case Study), leaving me with questions as to why I progressed to the subsequent interview stages. In the closing statement of the final round, there was mention of the delightful food I could anticipate in Berlin. However, the rejection email came as a surprise, and unfortunately, it lacked specific feedback.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at GetYourGuide (Berlin) in Oct 2019
Interview
My process had the following steps:
- I applied for the role of CRM Insights Manager and sent my CV and cover letter.
- I was called for a screening interview with the recruiter.
- They sent me a case study, which I should complete in 5 days. There were many questions to answer, but that helped me to build a compelling presentation.
- I was invited to the office. First interview was with the hiring manager and I had to present him the case study results and do a short oral case interview (similar to management consulting interviews).
- Second interview was not technical, but a fit interview to understand my motivations to work at GetYourGuide
- Third interview was with the head of the area I would work in (Business Development). We decided I was not the best candidate for the role I applied, but I could be of more help in another role.
- There was a reference check (the hiring manager needed to talk to someone who previously managed me)
- Offer made
- Offer accepted

Question 1
Technical:
- What are the business implications of changing digital marketing attribution models?
- What targets would you set to help your segment increase net revenues?
- How would you organise a team to reach those targets? How would your roadmap be?
Fit:
- GetYourGuide has five core values. To which one you identify yourself most and why?
- You can't choose both: "Are you perfectionist or you want to get things done? Organised or creative? Intuitive or rational?"
- How would your perfect working place look like?
