This assessment will gauge how quickly, critically, and accurately you can analyze data. It will also test your understanding of analytical concepts.
Your recruiter will connect with you to answer your questions, collect logistical information, and explain more about the role and interview process.
This round focuses on your analytical skills, fit for the team, experience, and critical thinking ability. Your interviewer will assess your technical skills and business acumen and ask about your previous projects. They’ll also lead discussions of situational analytical problem-solving, which might include pseudo coding in SQL, Python/R, and basic statistics.
This round focuses on a case study and is one of the most crucial rounds. It will assess your ability to deliver recommendations convincingly. The take-home exercise contains a scenario-based question that will be shared with you in advance. You’ll analyze a provided limited data set and come up with recommendations.
This round is a follow-up interview with key business stakeholders from the team(s) you have been shortlisted for based on your performance in the case study round. Your interviewer will assess your fit for the team with role-specific questions and mini case studies.
Finally, the time has come to wear the ‘New Hire’ hat and make your mark at Agoda. At this stage, we’ll seal the deal & you can start planning your relocation to Bangkok!
Our interview process will require you to think like a scientist and tackle business cases effectively. To ensure that you’re approaching the questions the right way, follow the tips below:
1. Visit the Agoda website and mobile app. Do your research on the product, the company and our marketing strategies, and form an opinion on the user experience.
2. Prepare to be asked about SQL/Python/ R queries, basic to complex pseudo coding exercises, A/B testing, traffic, conversion, structuring a hypothesis, cannibalization, and the like. Even if this is not within your area of expertise, it is highly recommended that you do some research in advance.
3. Have a pen and paper handy — it is likely that you will be asked to discuss a mini case study during your conversation, so be prepared to jot down notes.
4. Ask questions. As you prepare for the interview, think of questions for the interviewers. This is your chance to really understand the role and whether it’s a good fit.
