I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Agoda (Bangkok) in Oct 2021
Interview
I applied for a job which is based in Bangkok and i am from a neighboring country .
Initially after applying through its website, A week after- two back to back rounds of interviews were scheduled.
In first round, the interviewer asked me to code for some problems . First was to find count of first non repeating character and second was to find a subarray with sum. I instantly coded for same and then he told me i was selected for further session. This session lasted for 50 minutes.
After 5 minute break, in second session, the interviewer asked me about data structures, then he asked me to implement merge sort algorithm and then he asked to write implementation for HashMap.
Since i know how to solve all these, i solved all these with clear explanation of the code too.
After 5 days, I got a mail today that I have been not selected with no proper feedback from team. I am damn sure it might not be because I am not able to meet the technical specification , but could due to any other reason.
Anyways, i had to take a day leave to plan for their back to back interviews, it would be great if hr would have given a feedback atleast.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Implement merge sort, first non repeating character
I was contacted by HR through email and then we had an initial discussion of 30 minutes. Process 2 rounds of interviews back to back 1) DS & algo round 2) LLD Then 3) Design round + technical discussion 4) Hiring manager Round For the first 2 rounds, interviewers didn't show up, so I had to email them and get it rescheduled. This happened twice. After the interviews I had to follow up many times regarding the status, and almost after month they setup 3rd round of interview. All the 3 interviews went well for me, I had answered almost all the questions. After repeatedly mailing them for the status I got a standard reply that we have decided to move forward with other candidates. I asked for the detail feedback but no response from them. This whole process has taken almost 2 and a half months., just a waste of time for me. These people are very unprofessional and don't care about the precious time of the candidates.
