Unfortunately, I had one of the worst candidate experience with Expedia Group. I have read many experiences similar to mine here on Glassdoor regarding poor communication from the recruitment team, and I am wondering why wouldn't a company like Expedia take them seriously and make an effort to correct them.
I had done rounds of interviews, the initial screening, a semi-technical discussion with the hiring manager, which went great. Then I did a technical assessment, which I put a lot of time and thoughts to it. After that, I was told that the team and the hiring manager would like to bring me for an on-site interview. Let me mention that the interview was taken place in Seattle, and since I am located in a different state, I had to take three days off work and travel there. I also had to make a presentation from a case study data they gave me. I worked on for a week, analyzing data and preparing the presentation. I gladly did that because I was very keen to join the team, as the project and people looked very interesting and smart. After my on-site interview, which I thought went great, I thanked the recruiter, and she told me she'll be in touch regarding the next steps.
A week went by with no feedback. I sent a friendly email, asking if there was an approximate timeframe were I could expect to receive feedback or a decision. Another week went by with no answer from the recruiter. I send another email, stating that I am considering other opportunities, and since Expedia is my top choice, it would be great if I could get feedback from them (I was trying to not let my experience with the recruiter taint my overall view of the company). Again, no answer! You would think that sending a two-sentence email would take less effort than ignoring my two follow-ups!
Two weeks went by and I get a short email from the recruiter, saying they haven't finalized the next steps yet, and she will tell me once they did! After nearly a month from the on-site interview, interviews with seven people, putting so much effort and energy on the whole process, this is the answer I get. This has left me with a very negative view of the recruitment team and the company.
