      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Yahoo (Beijing, Beijing) in Nov 2010

      Interview

      Have two round face to face interviews and one round paper test. The interviewer asked questions about the skills I listed on my resume, the project and internship experiences I have, of cause, there are coding problems in each round. Each round of face to face interview took about 1 hour and the paper test also takes 1 hour.

      Interview questions [2]
