Agoda Recruiter interviews, decoded.

Applied for jobs and didn't hear back, but through perseverance on LinkedIn I was able to find out who I needed to speak to about my application and got an interview. A 6 stage process is ridiculous, extremely poor candidate experience, single interviewer panels open to bias. No consistency in the tools used to arrange interviews. It’s very clear that the whole recruitment process needs to be looked into as it’s extremely poor, candidate experience is currently zero and you’re treated like a number with no feedback given even when requested.

I met with the hiring manager, APAC HR, and some business leaders. The whole process was pretty easy and not too tough. It was fast and smooth, and I liked that they made a decision quickly.

The interview process began with an online assessment, which included numerical reasoning and psychometric test questions. For candidates applying for mid-level positions, this stage felt quite impersonal and was generally a discouraging experience for any future roles.
