Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
I applied to my university and got an OA soon after a Yelp talk. The OA was a short, 20-minute coding assessment. After finishing the OA, I received an invitation for a Skype interview within a week. The HR asked me to choose from the Front-end, Back-end, or Mobile team, and I chose the Mobile team. The interview with a software engineer from the Mobile team began with some general questions about Yelp, followed by a coding exercise.
