Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Yahoo en déc. 2009
Entretien
The onsite was made up of 4 interviews
1. Coding
2. Algorithms
3. Web/DB/OS
4. OOD
1. In coding, I was asked to write an algo and code for finding unique key-value pairs in a large file.
2. Basic algorithm questions.
3. NDA
4. Design a class for card games like Poker, Ono etc.
The interviews seem to get more difficult as the day goes by but that is because in graduate school, there isn't more emphasis on OOD. In addition, the last interviewer expected me to know about Design Patterns.
I would recommend that you brush up on OOP and OOD, they seem to emphasize that more than the usual Algo/DS combo.
They gave no feedback on why I got no offer but probably because the earliest joining dates were in June/July.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Design patterns that would be used in a card game. Not objects and classes but design patterns.
The selection process will consist of two rounds:
1. Online Coding Round – A technical assessment focused on your core tech stack.
2. Hiring Manager Interview (Online) – A virtual interview with the hiring manager to discuss technical depth, problem-solving approach, and alignment with the role.

The hiring manager did not show up at our originally scheduled meeting time. We rescheduled. The HM name dropped a bunch of big tech companies that they worked for in the past. It felt like the HM was hoping for me to provide a similar list of familiar brand names ... which was odd considering their supposed desire for more startup-y people.

Question 1
Tell me about a challenging project that you worked on.
The process was expected compared to most comparable jobs. Demonstrate and know your coding and you will do fine. The interview was fair and the hiring managers were all tech savvy. I accepted a different development position with another company a few days after the interview. It was a good experience overall.
