I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Agoda (Singapur) in Mar 2021
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn.
1. Initial chat with recruiter via phone call
2. Coding test - for mine, it was a OOP coding challenge, not difficult if you've been practising OOP languages (Java, C# etc)
3. Platform test - Tested on my React knowledge, could be entirely different depending on your experience and tech stack
4. Architecture - Gave a scenario and asked how I'd design solution in terms of the whole flow on the interview, you'd be expected to know deep level of details in each part of the process
The recruiter and the interviewers were very friendly. I learned a lot in preparing for the interviews.
