Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Online case study - a typical consulting interview process
The process was challenging but fair, emphasizing problem-solving abilities, understanding of algorithms and data structures, and code quality. The interviewer presented the problem clearly and gave me time to think through my approach. I had to implement a solution that efficiently handled sorting within subarrays, ensuring optimal performance.
Although the interview was intense, the interviewer was professional and supportive, providing hints when needed without giving away the solution. The experience highlighted Agoda's focus on technical depth and attention to detail, which I found both rigorous and rewarding.

Interview
Other posts here already highlight what the process is like. One piece of advise I would give to anyone else applying or in the process is to spend more time making sense of the data in the case study and come up with a conclusive inference based off the study. Explore different statistical methods to also support your inference. Go beyond simple trend lines and patterns.
The dataset may seem simple at first but there are many ways/dimensions to cut it and visualise. I personally believe a huge emphasis was placed on the data analysis part over the general recommendation but again this can vary depending on your hiring manager.
