Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

Process

The interview process involved two rounds of Skype technical interviews, followed by an onsite interview with four technical interviews.

During the onsite interview, the coding portions were challenging, but I managed to provide correct answers in the end. I also had good conversations with the managers and engineers. The entire process was relatively quick.

One week later, I received a rejection email. The recruiter did not provide any specific reasons for their decision. I asked the recruiter for more information about the interview feedback, but they stated that no feedback would be provided and wished me luck.

I feel that Yelp does not respect the time and effort that interview candidates invest in the process.
