Front End Developer Interview Experience - Dominica, Dominica
Process
The interview process was fairly simple. Personally, I learned a lot about the business and other related stuff to UI and design patterns, since the interview motivates you to read and come up with some ideas to improve the site. Personally, I dug deep into the business side.
First, it's a quick test to validate some basic knowledge of HTML, JS, and CSS. Then, a phone screening. The recruiter was very nice and educated. He took the time to inform me about everything so I could understand the process.
Then, they invited me to a live coding session with two developers. This part was very easy. The developers were very friendly and educated.
They all, in general, look like good people, and if the company culture is like that, then it should be a great place to work.

- 3.0Great people, codebase is a painFront End Developer • Current EmployeeAmsterdam, NetherlandsSeptember 15, 2020Pros: At Booking.com, I have met by far the highest percentage of smart people, genuinely willing to help you, wanting to do the right thing, open to hear your feedback and act on it, and also to provide you feedback. Most managers are open to be challenged; decisions are made based on data/reasons and not on "rank". Great office, great opportunity to meet different people and work in a truly international environment.Cons: The codebase is very bad. I have spent weeks struggling to add some functionality that might have taken me 1-2 days max to implement in clean code or from scratch. We are making progress, but unless you are on a good project with newer tech, the developer experience can be a pain, and growth from a technical point of view can be limited. Also, there is no baseline between teams/departments: from technical, functional, and UX, but most importantly, from a performance evaluation point of view. I have seen people being over-appreciated in some areas who would be really underperformers in other areas and vice versa.
