J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Yelp
Entretien
Submitted application online.
Phone screen with HR representative, basic CS questions like:
- Runtime of insert/lookup in hash table that uses lists (expected and worst case)
- SQL commands (something about JOIN, but I don't know SQL)
Really straightforward. Pretty simple questions, they don't expect you to do perfectly, but they just want to make sure you have some grasp of basic CS concepts.
Technical interview with current engineer:
- Basic programming questions, implementing a data structure
- Basic linux command questions (how do would you find and kill a process using a lot of CPU?)
This interview is pretty straightforward as well, a little stressful since you have to code in this shared document as the other guy is watching.
In general if you have a solid foundations in basic CS topics you should do well.

Very intense. 4 back to back 45 minute interviews. One behaviour and four technical interviews.
Nice people but got the vibe everyone was happy with the work as it wasn’t too challenging.
