Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Yandex (Ereván, ) en ene 2023
Entrevista
Take home test and live tech interview were a part of the selection process, it went ok, interviewers were friendly . I was also invited to take a culture fit interview
You need to go through five technical interview stages:
Livecoding
Algometric interview
Experience check
Systems design
Introduction to possible teams
Between stages there is usually a week's pause and a long wait for feedback
when you think you haven't passed yet you can get positive feedback
First screening internet is very basic - just spoke about my experience in a call
First and second technical interview was video call + screen sharing + code writing in the special Yandex environment (you can’t run JS code only write it)
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
First technical interview were with not hard but tricky questions about JS: like “this”, type conversion, etc
Second was a bit harder: setTimeout, callbacks, call / bind / apply, etc
Probably the next one should contain some algorithmic tasks
Was not awful. For sure is better than it was back then, but still too abstract and far from real-world tasks. Yandex is famous for his algorithmic approach to an interview and I see they are trying to get rid of this label.
