I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Bellevue, WA) in Mar 2014
Interview
Campus interviews, 1 on 1 with white board coding. Simple problems using Binary search tree traversal and binary search for a scenario. Interviews went well and got invited for onsite interviews at Bellevue HQ. It was challenging and fun; 3 back to back interviews. Two interviewers were fun, while one of them was uptight with hardly a smile. Expedia is quite generous in reimbursing the travel/lodging costs. $75 per day on meals.
Got the offer within 10 days. The pay rate is the best part, exceeds expectations. The whole process was quick, efficient and enjoyable.

I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2023
Interview
First step was the OA, it consisted of leetcode mediums. Don't remember exactly but I either got 2 or 3 questions. Months later, they let me know I made it to the final round interview. This consisted of two hour-long interviews back-to-back with two different engineers in the company. I was asked leetcode easy questions for both of them as well as standard behavioral questions. I received my offer about two weeks later.
