I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Expedia Group in Jun 2015
Interview
I went through three phone screens (one with HR and two with Area Managers) and then an in person interview. The recruiter was nice, but doesn't communicate very well. They rarely responded to follow up emails unless they needed something from you.
It came down to myself and another candidate. I Never received a phone call, and I followed up with the recruiter twice and finally I reached out directly to the interviewers, who immediately had the recruiter call me. I got the let down of "We think you're a great fit for us but you you were over qualified for this position and think you'd be better for the next position up. Email me if one becomes available and we will expedite your application."
The position has since become available, I applied, and 2 months and multiple emails later, I have not received any communication regarding my application.
Overall, whilst Expedia seems to be a company I could see myself working for, the recruitment process doesn't seem worth it.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Bellevue, WA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Decent process with a phone interview and 3 onsite interviews : Submitting resume through a staffing agency or internal recruiter/current Expedia Employee will result in a quick response. For interview preparation, use career cup or other similar online resources. Also, you could use any interview prep book. Practice white boarding of tech questions.
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Expedia Group (London, England)
Interview
Applied through a university recruitment portal. Passed through two phone-call/Skype interview stages (the first ~30 minutes and nontechnical, the second ~1 hour and technical). Invited down to London for an in person interview (travel expenses reimbursed).
Interviews happened concurrently with ~15 others applying for internships/graduate positions. First was a ~2 hour (or a little under) technical interview with two engineers. Comprised of whiteboard exercises and a small amount of practical programming on a provided laptop.
This was followed by lunch and a group exercise with 3-4 of the other applicants (design and market an idea for a travel app). There was then one final interview with a team leader (fairly nontechnical).
