Airbnb's interview process for Technical Writers emphasizes practical writing skills, technical depth, collaborative ability, and alignment with company values (Champion the Mission, Be a Host, Embrace the Adventure, Be a Cereal Entrepreneur). For junior-level candidates, the process includes an initial recruiter screening, a technical phone screen focused on writing and technical knowledge, and a 4-round onsite loop consisting of a writing assessment, technical depth interview, code review/collaborative round (reviewing developer documentation and working with engineers), and a behavioral round assessing cultural fit and mission alignment.
