Software Developer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

June 1, 2011

Positive ExperienceGot Offer

Process

It was very simple. I was asked to crack one skill test on skillexam.com, and that was the main phase of the interview.

After that, they called me for an interview as my marks were very good, and skillexam is not an easy skill test.

That round was only a negotiation round; they didn't ask any technical questions.

Simply, I got an appointment letter after 10 working days, and I am still working at Yahoo, CA.

Questions

All the questions were descriptive. I don't remember them now, but you may find them on skillexam.com.
