J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez KAYAK (Cambridge, MA) en oct. 2015
Entretien
Met a KAYAK rep at a University job fair. They liked my CV and I got a call the next day to set up an interview in Cambridge. I went into the office and met several people on the UI team. The office itself is spectacular and everyone I met was smart and articulate. We spoke about my past experiences with web development, and they asked what I was passionate about. I answered a few simple coding questions and one hard one.
Apparently the whole office heads to the onsite bar at 4:30 on Thursdays, so I finished the interview by having a couple beers with the CTO and the head of engineering.
Three days later I received an offer letter and accepted.

Question 1
How would you implement the bind function in javascript?
Very simple. Not much. It can be improved. It had several bad questions. Some were not working . Their own system was not working well lol. So the interview experience was really bad to be honest. I don’t have much to say.
The interview process was smooth and professional until the final step. Unfortunately, during this stage, the interviewer seemed unprepared, relying solely on my CV for information rather than conducting a structured discussion. The questions felt random rather than tailored to the role, and there was no clear agenda.
Additionally, the interviewer was unaware of the scheduled duration, and the meeting ran twice as long as planned. Even when I pointed out that we had exceeded the allocated time and needed to conclude, the interview continued. Given the professionalism of the earlier stages, I had expected this final step to be equally well-organized.

J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez KAYAK en oct. 2024
Entretien
The recruiter sent me a take-home assignment and require me to finish it within 5 business days. There is no introduction call or other interactions. After I finish the assignment, the recruiter became ghosted and never heard any updates. It seems they are not going to proceed the hiring process. Those assignments are like been sent by bots.
