I applied online. I interviewed at Yahoo in Apr 2023
Interview
You have 4 rounds..one is a coding challenge with further technical questions from the interviewer, another a technical question and answer with an interviewer, a take home test which is to be reviewed with further technical questions from the interviewer and a manger interview ..they all last an hour each so 4 hours total that are scheduled in different days..all the questions are pretty straight to the point tho..they are intricate but not impossible. I would say you really got to know your stuff!
