Process

I was invited to Yahoo NYC's Open House through my university.

I pitched to several teams at the event.

Most teams simply asked a bit about my experience. One team asked simple Java trivia when I mentioned Java was my primary language.

I received an onsite interview call on the very next day.

It consisted of two back-to-back one-on-ones, heavy on design.

Questions

Core Java Concurrency Map Reduce Algorithmic (LCS variant) Design a concurrent load balancer Design an LFU cache
