Our Software Engineer interns’ primary responsibility is to support our teams in optimising our travel platform. We have various opportunities focusing on front, back & full stack development.
Here’s what Louise has said about her placement year at Expedia:
“I truly believe I had one of the best placement experiences I could’ve ever had. Hotels.com really helped me grow and bring me out of my comfort zone. Being part of the Shopping team was amazing, I was able to start out as a backend Java engineer. When I wanted to see the full stack the team encouraged me to get involved in the front end side. I even got to learn a little bit about being a Scrum Master and ran a handful of our daily stand ups. Being able to contribute to features that are still live on the site is such a rewarding feeling. I had some of the best mentors, and they have inspired me in so many ways. They encouraged my questions, welcomed my ideas for the team and really helped me build my confidence in my technical ability.”
