J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Tripadvisor en mars 2013
Entretien
I was contacted about a week after submitting my resume through their online resume repository -- I also knew an employee who submitted my resume as well.
Got a phone interview: ~30 minutes long, a week later. My background: I'm a senior with 7 months real world RoR and Spring development experience -- BUT I have not taken the Algorithms & Design course yet and this is what screwed me over! I'm in a co-op school, so this class would have been completed by the time the Fall internship would have started, but that didn't matter, I had to know it then and there.
Pros: interviewer was nice, polite, and patient (thank God). Got my rejection 2 days after the interview, so I didn't have to wait long.
Cons: It seemed like he didn't even review my resume when, before my coding exercise began, he asked me if "I wrote code in Java"... which he would have learned by reading the first paragraph in my resume. If you have not taken a course on algorithms and design, I'd suggest learning what you can on your own before the interview. Got real world experience? They probably don't care much, so revert back to your knowledge of computer science!
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
There were no difficult questions.
Descriptive questions: the difference between arrays and linked lists, how to insert into an array and a linked list, how to remove from an array and linked list. He also asked me questions about quick sort vs. merge sort, Big O, and another algorithms question -- which I could not answer, because I had not taken the course.
Coding exercise: build a Binary Tree (not BST) and implement a getDepth() method that returns the depth of the tree.

I applied for this company on our campus career fair, and in the next few days they scheduled me an on-campus interview. One person interviewed me for about 45 minutes. Only technical questions, didn't ask me about my project or something else. He asked me to write code in a white board and then asked me some question about the code.He also told me there would be 3 rounds of interviews.
Then I received an email telling me I passed the interview and then came up the 2nd round - telephone interview. It's a 30-minute interview asking a quite simple question and some extensions. Then he started to introduce the job and environment of their company.
And after maybe 2 weeks, there will be an on-site interview if you pass the previous one.

Question 1
Nothing difficult. The first question is about combination of HashMap and ArrayList, which the best answer should be LinkedHashMap but it's OK if you didn't know about this class.
The second interview is to find the same element in two lists

Two phone interviews covering:
1. Find and remove all numeric characters in a singly linked list
2. Questions about basic data structures, trade offs, use case, access complexities
3. Given string A, B, return string A - (A intersect B)
4. implement basic hash table and collision handling
5. Discuss algorithmic complexity of solutions in all cases

Question 1
Nothing unexpected. Very standard cs101 data structures related questions.
