1 intro, 1 coding, 1 advanced c++, 1 tdd, finals
everything as usual at Yandex, tdd is behavioural with extra steps
I was okay with it, but many can't endure all those interviews
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at YANDEX (Moscow, Moskva) in Jul 2022
Interview
First you have a phone interview with recruiter. Then 2 technical interviews, if it is a senior level, then you also have system design interview. A person can easily pass them if they consistently solve LC easy/medium. After passing all the interviews, you have team matching interviews
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at YANDEX (Almaty) in Apr 2023
Interview
I was invited to interview as I had been in previous interview year before. It was coding interview. I was asked to solve 2 code questions - 1 in c++ (leetcode easy) and one in python (simple ml). I think that these questions were easy (even junior can solve them), but they look at quality of the code (var namings, code breakdown)
