I have applied online for position of product owner infrastructure through their website. After some days I have received email from recruiter saying that my profile has been shortlisted and they want to connect with me. I had initial discussion with HR and after a week I have asked for update upon which she said that my profile has been shortlisted. After that there was interview with 2 product owners for about 50 min. After this this round I got a call from HR saying that they want to move ahead and invite me to amsterdam for interview. After 2 days HR calls and says that, their higher management feels now that I don't have enough product experience(4 years in product + 2 years in development) and so they do not want to move ahead with me. These guys are very confused while arranging for an interview. They wasted my late night hours for 3 round of interview and until then my experience was all good. All of a sudden they feel its is less. Too much of miscommunication and lack of interest in taking candidate interviews. Also my second round was rescheduled at last moment by informing half hour ealier. They are not serious about candidates and interview and just waste time. Highly unprofessional and not recommended. By now if the actual recruiter reads this then she will surely understand, who has written the review.

Applied through the website and got a revert from the hr in 2 days. 1st screening by the technology recruiter was scheduled after 5 days, on a Tuesday. Got the call from hr 20 mins after the decided time. The questions were regarding the products I've handled, metrics, prioritisation, few examples where I performed ab tests and why I want to join Booking. Hr also discussed about the timelines of process, and the different rounds that'll happen. It was a pretty decent interview and I answered all the points well. The hr told that she'll be back latest by Friday regarding the next steps. I sent a mail on Friday evening about the next steps, as I wanted to utilise the weekend for the preparation for the next round. Got an auto-reply mail after an hour that they wouldn't continue with the process. No reasons stated for not continuing and no response provided as well. I'm still not sure what was the reason behind not continuing with the candidature.
