Airbnb Technical Support Engineer (Mid-Level) Interview Preparation Guide

Airbnb's interview process for mid-level Technical Support Engineers typically consists of 5-6 rounds spread over 4-6 weeks. The process begins with a recruiter screening to assess background and motivation, followed by a technical phone screen focused on troubleshooting and problem-solving. Candidates then proceed to an onsite loop (4-5 rounds) that evaluates technical depth, system architecture knowledge, customer communication skills, and cultural alignment with Airbnb's 'belong anywhere' values. The company emphasizes both technical excellence and customer empathy.
