I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Booking.com in Sep 2015
Interview
I applied online with a cover letter and a resumé. Few days later a recruiter contacts me for schedule a Phone Interview. The first step was the Phone Interview with a IT Sourcer. He asked me about my experiences, skills, why work in Booking etc. It was a very pleasant conversation. He decided to pass me to the second step, a Technical Phone Interview. The Interview was conducted by 2 members of design team. They asked me about my design process, experiences and skills. I was prepared for the interview, but my english conversations were not the way I wanted. In this step is very important talk everything you know about design process, A/B test and Front-end skills.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Booking.com in Oct 2021
Interview
First round: recruiters
Second round: hiring manager and team leads
Third round: portfolio with senior designers
Many data-related questions, and almost no design-related questions. Many quantitative research questions and no qualitative questions. Their expectations of the role seem very different from what they describe in the job posting. The role seems more like a Business Analyst than a designer position. The role was already closed before the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What metrics do you use to measure your design?
How do you prove your design is the best design? (using data)
What quantitative research methods you've used?

I was a straight coding and front-end development position. It has nothing to do with UX, most exercises and tasks involves talking about code infrastructure and doing menial HTML/CSS stuff.

Interview
I applied online in January 2018. For Amsterdam
1) Someone from RRHH send an email: asking to complete an online test to assess general coding skills (CSS and HTML). The test is in HackerRank. When I enter I have an image of a banner from booking page. Something really easy. I recommend you take a look in the structures of the banners in Booking page.
2) I had a call with someone from RRHH (no video):
- He told me that in booking in general you are coding between 40% and 60% of the time.
- Do you have experiences validation your designs?
- Imagine that you are working for booking, and you made 2 improvements for the site but you can only applied one. How you will prioritized it?
3) I had an interview with 2 designers (no video). The interview is divided in 3 parts:
-One : They asked me about my job experiences. How is the most proud job that I made. My roll in that job. Why I'm proud. How I manage feedback with the clients. How was the work process. They want examples. So be prepared with examples for all.
- Second: They show me an image with a grey rectangle that has inside 3 squares. They asked to make the code to do the same.
-Last: I should have prepared 3 improvement to make in the site. I attached the images with the changes and documentation like gestalt and other info about UX. They asked to me select One of my improvements, said why? How would you define the success of the new implementation? What metric would you use? If the metrics shows an increment in the clicks but it any changes in the conversion: do you think that the change is successfully or not? why? If increment the clicks, the conversions and the cancellations do you think that the change is successfully or not? why?
- At the end you should asked something. Have prepared 1 or 2 questions.
