Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Agoda (Bangkok) nel mese di dic 2025
Colloquio
The process seemed quite structured but very long. After an online assessment, there was HR screening and supposedly four rounds. The first round was fine with a doable case-study with a sharp interviewer.
The second round was a take-home assignment round with an Associate Director. The presentation was addressed to Head of Analytics and Head of Strategy and ideally should have catered to both's questions. However, in reality the interviewer didn't ask a single question from the presentation or the case study and asked random questions unrelated to the given case. The person seemed quite distracted and responded with arrogance every time they spoke.
I had spent an entire weekend doing analysis on the data and bringing insights more than asked for from the case, but all in vain since the interviewer had no idea or intention to ask about all the analysis done.
Agoda has multi step interview process: -
1. SHL Test (General Ability)
2. HR Round
3. Case Rounds (2-3 rounds depending on the HR round)
4. Take home case puzzle

Colloquio
The process consisted of an online assessment, a recruiter interview, a case interview, and a final-round case presentation (where my process ended). There were supposed to be two additional case interviews afterward, making the overall process quite long.
For the case presentation, I was asked to prepare a 30-minute presentation based on a take-home case study, which I submitted one week in advance. However, the interview did not follow the communicated format. The interviewer joined around 20 minutes late and began with questions already covered in earlier rounds, followed by an unexpected consulting-style case.
My take-home presentation was not referenced until I pointed out that the session was meant to focus on it. It was then acknowledged that the wrong interview format had been recorded internally. As a result, I had only about 15 minutes left to present a case designed for a much longer discussion, making the session rushed and ineffective.
The final round felt unprepared and misaligned across the team. Given the significant time investment required and the number of rounds planned, the lack of coordination was disappointing and honestly disrespectful.
