I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Expedia Group in May 2016
Interview
Got an email from the director of Data Science about a Data Science summer internship opening, had a phone screen and then a technical interview. First phone screen was a general resume screen and the second round was a machine learning problem. I was asked about how I would approach the problem, what tools would I use and how will I evaluate the model.
I applied online. I interviewed at Expedia Group (London, England) in Feb 2026
Interview
First technical assessment: 75 min for Hackerrank generated questions, related to business scenarios that Expedia normally would encounter. multiple SQL Qs + 2 Python Qs + Basic 101 Stats (p-value, type 1, type 2 error, CI)
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Bengaluru) in Feb 2026
Interview
The interview experience was positive overall. The interviewers were understanding, supportive, and created a comfortable environment for me to share my thinking. The questions were thoughtful and relevant to the role. However, the process was significantly slower than expected — there were long gaps between rounds with little proactive communication, and I had to follow up multiple times to get updates on next steps. Faster communication between stages would greatly improve the candidate experience.
Technical phone screen and then 4 rounds of interviews that covered machine learning, coding, and soft skills. They let me know they were not going to make an offer several weeks after the interview.
