Case Study: Expedia improves tech talent hiring with HackerRank

From Tech to Travel How Expedia Uses Passion to Attract Tech Talent

Expedia, a major online travel company with brands like Hotels.com, Hotwire.com, and Travelocity, needed a better way to attract and evaluate exceptional tech talent in a competitive market. The team also wanted to improve alignment with hiring managers and reduce manual effort in technical recruiting, using HackerRank to support its tech hiring process.

HackerRank helped Expedia build technical assessments with input from developers and core hiring criteria, while adding automated scoring to reduce workload for the hiring team. The result was a more consultative, efficient process with clearer expectations, improved candidate evaluation, and faster hiring for technology roles, while Expedia also tracked stronger recruiting metrics such as candidate attrition, time to interview, and NPS.
