Software Engineer Intern Interview Experience - Canada
Process
Applied in person at a career fair in October/November.
Was then scheduled for a call with a recruiter which consisted of about 15-20 mini questions (technical and behavioural) to see if I would move forward with interviews with Yelp engineers.
Questions were not too difficult.
I was then scheduled for a 45-minute technical interview via Skype. Questions were similar to other data structures & algorithms interview questions from other companies.
After, I was then scheduled for two back-to-back 45-minute interviews with two different Yelp engineers via Skype. Questions were both technical and behavioural.
After, I then had a chat with another Yelp recruiter and was then approved by Yelp's VP of Engineering to receive an offer.
Entire process took about 1.5-2 months. (Can be faster if you want it to be).

Yelp Work Experiences
- 3.0Overall a good place. My team was not the right fitSoftware Engineer Intern • Former EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesFebruary 8, 2014Pros: Live in San Francisco High pay Weekly talks Good cultureCons: I did not enjoy what I was working on. There was a weird dichotomy between well-treated software engineers (e.g., we got field trips and free lunch on Fridays) and poorly treated sales people.
- 5.0Great Impact, Slow PaceSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeLondonderry County Borough, Northern Ireland, United KingdomOctober 26, 2024Pros: Awesome place to work and make an impact.Cons: Very slow-paced environment; it can seem boring.
- 1.0Not worth itSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeHamburg, GermanyOctober 9, 2020Pros: Good Salaries in Europe Working at a big scaleCons: Openly sexist leaders. Middle management and bureaucracy make life hard. First-line managers are usually untrained and overworked. Misalignment between advertised company values and reality: "Connect users with great local businesses" yields in front of making revenue, at all costs. Things like "Play well with others," "Be unboring," and "Protect the Source" are actually not enforced amongst the team or offices, not rewarded, and will actually slow down your career if you take this for the reality of the company culture.
