Process

They will first call you for their technical phone screen, usually by a recruiter who may not have a technical background.

This is very similar to the questions already posted on Glassdoor.

This is followed by the scheduling of a Skype interview.

Know why you want to work at Yelp and talk about your resume.

Be prepared to discuss:

  • Time complexity
  • Basic terminology
  • Unix commands

Questions

Pretty standard. Explain how entering a website in your browser works.
