I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Agoda in Apr 2024
Interview
Assessment test, followed by recruiter screening and then three interviews with different people in the team.
Unfortunately this wasn't a pleasant experience as they try to low ball you and bring you at a lower designation than what is advertised. Similarly with salary expectations - always go 20% higher than what you actually want!

I applied online. I interviewed at Agoda in Jul 2024
Interview
An Agoda recruiter reached out and sent over two Alooba assessment links (one for a Marketing Analyst role and the other for a Manager position). I'm currently a Marketing Analyst and deal with Google and Adobe analytics everyday -- the application also made it seem like related questions would be on the assessment. First, the Alooba platform gave me so many technical issues like not being able to click the 'Next' button to proceed. Then the questions were not relevant to the role; it seemed like it was a mix of multiple data roles (analytics, science, engineering). Lastly, when I got to the video portion, my final video did not upload, it ended up being the first video I recorded. I informed the Agoda recruiter but of course with some questions not answered during the assessment, others I likely got wrong, and an incomplete video interview, I was bound not to move forward.
