I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Yandex (Moscow, Moskva) in Aug 2012
Interview
I had 3 interviews. The first one was a phone interview, the second was a campus interview with 3 different developers and the third was with managers of the department.
I would say the second was the hardest. The third was formal and didn't change their opinions as I could see.
