I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Booking.com (Amsterdam) in Mar 2016
Interview
Ridiculous interview, hypothetic situations playrole seem to be more important there someone's skills and experience. The interview was arrogant and insisted on answers to hypothetical questions. It felt like in primary school. Salary really low.
Aftee online registration, I had to do the online test that took 2 hours max. Then I got to the phone interview before finally to the chance for the online interview with the team lead. Somehow I made a mistake in the scheduling (the mistake was on me and I admitted and apologized for it) and I asked for rescheduling. The recruiter asked about any other time slot for another interview. Two days later I got an email saying I got rejected. Which was fine. I understood since I made a mistake, so I replied saying my gratitude for the chances to get the interview invitations, only to get a reply accusing me of lying. I still have no clue why they said I was lying. I was cool about getting rejected before. Being told that you lied when you didn't is another thing.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Booking.com (Istanbul) in Oct 2016
Interview
I received a phone call and then I was emailed the information for my interview. I went there and I took a test to prove my translation and language skills but they told me they would let me know if the result was positive. I wasn't interviewed. It was a loud envrionment with the employees speaking around me while I had limited time for the test. It was distracting and unprofessional.
