I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Yahoo in Feb 2016
Interview
Fairly straightforward overall. Started out with a phone screen where I was asked a few basic questions, then followed up with another phone screen. Never had an on-site interview, only phone interviews and emails with the recruiters before I got the offer.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Yahoo (Sunnyvale, CA) in Jul 2012
Interview
Qualified by a contract agency about my experience and skill sets. Once approved and submitted I was next invited to Headquarters in Sunnyvale for a face to face.
Interviewed with 3 people and was called back the next Monday for a position. Very fast, efficient process. They were more interested in how fast I could learn, figure something out rather than what I already knew. This is clearly how smart engineers used to recruit fellow brainiacs.
Wisdom also shuns from fabled unicorns, purple squirrels ( although I swear I saw a few at Y!) and other fictitious entities as they are as real as the very definition of these wonderful businesses we seek employment with.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Yahoo in Apr 2016
Interview
I applied for this internship, and within a couple weeks I received an email asking to schedule an in-person interview. I interviewed with the team, and everyone was very friendly. It was honestly the most fun I've had in an interview.
