Mhm.

Welcome to Expedia.

Most people think of us is just another travel company, but with so much more than that way provide the technology that lets people travel around the world at this amazing London office.

We've got 1000 people here now, as well as more officers all around the globe, and we're looking for people like you gonna find you way.

So here in expedient, we don't just want to be a boring tools that allow our customers thio, find and book travel.

We want to create disruptive products using cutting edge technologies that adds value to our customers lives.

I think the culture here in the studio it's all about innovation on helping each other.

I describe the culture.

Expedia is quite laid back and casual.

Everyone's very friendly.

You can always grab a drink from the fridge is it's very relaxed, with lots of autonomy.

It's like give and take, but five minutes later, I can put you know an extra 10 minutes in that the end of the day.

Yes, technology Expedia way.

Combine it with analytics.

What that means for the wider business is that we can have the craziest ideas in the world, you can come up with an idea.

I can come up with an idea.

Siocon come with an idea.

A lot of companies would be afraid to just like fully going and embrace a new way of doing things with expedience, like it's about doing that.

It's about saying, Look, here's a new technology.

How could we apply this?

What could we do?

How could this make our jobs?

But allows us to make sure we put the best hotels in front of our customers so that they could make the best choices when they're traveling.

To do that, we use the latest and greatest technology much about open source on.

We also contribute technology back to the open source community.

I've learned.

I think I probably learned more doing for internships Head and I have in three years at university or the practical skills have gained the programs.

I've learned to use our do sequel like things that are actually gonna matter to my career.

It's not university power points.

When I finished university, I knew that I was super passionate about robotics.

I was super passionate about artificial intelligence on.

I loved to program, but I didn't know what type of career I wanted.

I was kind of really nervous about applying for different placements because I felt like I would be pigeonholed in myself into a single career.

What I love about Expedia and I've been here for eight years is I've been able Thio change and build my career.

Way started the program four years ago in the US on day two years ago in the UK, so it's a relatively new program.

What we found in that time is a big acceleration in the last couple of years.

So from 2020 14, we hired around 150 drugs and intense worldwide this year, 2015 that's risen toe over 400.

Next year is gonna rise Thio at least 5 50.
