I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Yandex (Moscow, Moskva) in Apr 2017
Interview
1 or 2 persons asking you questions or tests which may have no good answer or you need some not standard thinking to solve the quiz. But sometimes they simply don't know what they want. Like in my case. Three times in a row.

First step - call with recruiter who asked several questions about myself, salary, and asked a simple probability task. Next step was a programming section (online 'on a white board') and the next time I could have had a math section
