The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Agoda (Nueva Delhi)
Interview
Not even worth mentioning. Not an even an intro call. Just random tests and interview. Direct first round of coding assessment. Then a video interview with one of the engineer. Then a take home assignment. Then no response, feedback. Please do respect candidates' time as well!
I was contacted by a recruiter soon after I applied. The recruiter sent me a link to a Hackerrank test. The test contained a total of 17 questions, with 3 coding questions and 14 MCQ
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Reverse words in a string
2. Find the first number in an array that is not repeated (or repeated, I do not remember exactly)
3. Sort a given list of date string

console.log(this);
}
new logsth();
what is the value of this?
5. const cowsound = 'moo';
function makesound() {
console.log(cowsound);
const cowsound = 'baa';
console.log(cowsound);
}

The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Agoda in Feb 2020
Interview
Two interviews in same day with 15 minutes interval.
First - coding skills session - actually dumb math questions
Second - software architecture session - interviewer expected that I will agree with his (strange) opinion about distributed programming
Three weeks after interview, No feedback
