Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Yahoo (Sunnyvale, CA) en oct 2009
Entrevista
Both were phone interviews they didnot call for onsite after second round. Both interviews lasted 45 mins
First interview was straight forward screening interview . Interviewer just wanted to check if I knew basic tools and basic concepts about debugging. simple questions about what is ACL , If you have a network problem how will you go about debugging it.
Second interview was a bad experience. First of all the interviewer called 45 minutes late saying he forget he had to call me. Then for 10 mins he was wondering what to ask me. Then he picked up a web project I had worked on and started asking silly and random debuggng questions. The questions were so general I really didnot know what he was looking for whether he was looking for any specific tools or names ? The questions didnot seem to test my skills to much extent. The whole interview had a subjective feel to it and I cannot say they rejected me as I gave wrong answers in second interview rather he didnot like my answers.
