it was really good, first interview with a woman and not technical and the second one it was technical with three people. one of the people was trainee and the other two were asking questions, there was one question and there were lots of parameters there
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Booking.com (Amsterdam) in Mar 2024
Interview
Overall super smooth interview process. The recruiter shared how to prepare for each round and the feedback after each interview round.
1-Recruiter Call
2-Hiring Manager Interview
3-Craft Interview I
4-Craft Interview II
5-Fit interview
All the interviews are free-fall conversations and more like conversational where you build the conversation with interviewers. I have used the STAR framework to answer all the questions they raised and started building from it.
extra tip. for both Craft Interviews, have your own stories mapped to stakeholder management, strategy, roadmapping.
And also in the Fit interview, it is expected to get more product-related questions.
Good Luck :)
