      Software QA Interview

      21 Apr 2011
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Hotels.com (London, England) in Mar 2011

      Interview

      Applied for the position directly through their website. Received initial response 2 weeks later. Interview scheduling was very quick. Phone interview with hiring manager took place the same week, for 30 minutes. It sounded like they had already made up their mind to bring me in for a face-to-face interview. By the end of the call, the hiring manager confirmed that they would be scheduling something in-person. In-person interview took place the following week. Met with 5 people one-on-one, including the hiring manager again. Everything went well; very typical questions were asked. Some situational, some about past experience etc. Nothing too technical. Finally the hiring manager told me that my answers were very good, but not my demeanor (sitting posture, body language etc.). Left me on that note, not knowing which way things were going to go. Finally I received an email from their HR 10 days later, saying that I had not been successful. This may just be this particular hiring manager's style, but there definitely was undue emphasis on the non-verbal aspects of the interview.

      Question 1

      I want you to pretend that you are making me a cup of tea. Narrate each step along the way.
