Software Engineer Interview Experience - Los Angeles, California

January 1, 2016
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied to Yahoo at my university career fair around mid-January.

I spoke to a member of the engineering team and did well. An on-campus interview was scheduled the following Friday.

I attended the interview and I thought I did well. I was told that I would get a follow-up in 2-3 weeks.

Unfortunately, I never got a follow-up email. I emailed the recruiters several times, but either got automated responses saying that they were out of office for recruitment, or sometimes I never got a response at all.

I still have not received any status update on my application at Yahoo and feel they were unprofessional in their response.
