After all 80-90% of the questions were same as people here mention. In my case they asked a lot about my team work ability and opinion. Interview difficulty is average and all of the questions were quite basic. I wasn't hired because of my little experience and because I was not skillful enough (they didn't judge me until I get a final interview though) anyway you will definitely get hired if you show that you're skillful and a good team player. GOOD LUCK!
"Why Booking?"
"What kind of team do you want to work with?"
"What kind of team you used to work with?"
"What you like least about the team you have worked with?"
"If somebody in your team dislikes you, what would you do?"
"Why did you leave your last job?"
"How would your family/friend describe you?"
"Where do you see yourself in 5 years?"
"Any suggestions about Booking?" (about translating and website contents)
Also we discussed my language test on the first interview.
"Was it enough to complete it in 2hours?"
"How many extra minutes did you need?"
"Any part you would like to rewrite?" (think and answer during the interview)
"Why did you translate in this way?"etc.
I've applied via their website and did two rounds of interviews. The first one was with someone from the HR and then the second one with a stakeholder.
The first one, HR was late 15 minutes and started the meeting telling me the vacancy was not available anymore - they decided not to hire someone. But them they suggested I applied to a senior position... and I agreed.
They schedule the call in the middle of my vacations, and I connected from my phone. Had an okay interaction with the stakeholder for 1h or more, simple questions, nothing complex.
I understood this was a behaviour interview, as the person was not from my field.
They wrote me a couple of days later saying they wouldn't follow with my process, although I was a cultural fit - they wanted someone with "more experience in complex projects" with sounded absurd at that point, when they didn't evaluate it.
This plus the sloppiness of the whole process let me quite disappointed.

How do you leverage the difference between language A and language B?
During the appllication process, you need to take a translation test. If you pass, after the recruiter screening, there are two interviews: one with the team and the other with the hiring manager.

Informal interview, professional but friendly atmosphere. Communication was smooth, invitation via email, prompt responses, flexibility in setting the interview date. The process included a test and three rounds of interviews.
