I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Agoda (Bangkok) in Jul 2017
Interview
Interview was pretty easy. First of all that was Skype call to meet with interviewer and to describe all my experience and current work position, and also to understand, what ways exists at Agoda to go through.
Then, it was "homework" task about high load REST application with concurrency problems. Interesting enough task, where you can think a lot and suggest different ways to make it well.
After task, there was another one Skype call to discuss suggested solution and and answer about all pros and cons of this solution.
Then, after few days, I was invited to Bangkok for face-to-face meeting and interview. This was 4-days trip including one full day for interviews with 4 development managers from different teams.
During these interviews we also discussed my previous experience and career wishes. Also during the conversation we worked together to solve a variety of random problems and processes from the backend API, such as "Today everything is working well, and tomorrow we see a huge load, what are we going to do.".
Pretty nervous day, especially for non-native English speakers, but people were friendly and understanding.

Question 1
How would you distribute and limit incoming traffic between several API endpoints, if you have limit in N millions requests per second, and real traffic starts to exceed these value.
I interviewed at Agoda (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Jun 2026
Interview
First round was a DS algo round, where 2 questions were asked. Medium level, nothing fancy.
In second round was given a hld of a booking system i had to tell what improvements i would make to the system.I mention a lot of things but was rejected cause i did not speak much on the QA side. You have to know about testing frameworks. I thought it was unfair by him to reject only on that basis. Hasn't changed the company himself in 10 years.

Interview
The interview process was very smooth.
I was asked the question to find the minimum sum pairs in the array, and return all of them. The interviewer was very helpful and supportive.
I applied online. I interviewed at Agoda (Bangkok) in Nov 2025
Interview
Totally the worst experience. If you don't consider me as a candidate, please DONT ask me to do an online assessment.
I submitted the application on Nov 3, 2025, and completed the OA on Nov,10 2025 with 70% required time and over 90% test cases. Two days later, I received the rejected letter.
I'm never treated in this way, completed the OA but the interview is no show-up and waste both-side time
