Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

1 phone tech screen + 4 rounds on-site.

The interview questions were quite typical. You may expect to code on a laptop.

Based on what I observed, the environment and culture were good (easy, work & life balanced).

It was not my first time having an interview at Yahoo. I would say their HR/recruiters and their management were terrible. They were chewing while talking to you over the phone. They would mess up the schedule, forget to follow up, etc.

Last thing: you were rejected if they hadn't given you feedback within 2 days.

Questions

3-hour problem-solving session by coding on a computer

  • 3 rounds of typical whiteboard challenges

Its difficulty is median.
