Some exciting projects our interns have collaborated on with us:

• Group Collaboration Tools: Group Collaboration is one of the centerpieces of our traveler experience at Vrbo. Join the Group Collaboration team to investigate Traveler and Partner feedback loops: How can we provide actionable insights to partners based on new forms of traveler activity (e.g. Collaboration tools usage, comments, voting, chat, and tags). Get your hands “dirty” with real traveler data, socialize opportunities with partners and partner participants. Develop a potential road-map based on customer value, available data, and platform feasibility 

• Search & Discovery: Today filters in the search experience are largely binary yes/no or in/out determinations. But filters also can be a signal of preference for travelers. Using traveler research, competitive insights and data mining -- how could we re-think this aspect of the search and discovery experience to enable travelers to signal preferences and then use those preference signals to provide personalized and tiered/federated results and suggestions?
