I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Yelp (Amsterdam) in Jan 2016
Interview
I applied for the position of Community Manager Amsterdam in January. I received a very positive reply to my application and I had high hopes for nailing it. But then they suddenly changed the position and informed me that I was put 'on hold'. After finally receiving an invitation for a job interview I was told that the position was changed to a 'freelance position'... and at the second interview they informed me that the position had changed once again and I received a very poor offer. Overall a very disappointing experience, which I did not expect from Yelp.

Question 1
"What would be your strategy for boosting the Yelp community in Amsterdam?"
I thought the interview process was short, but quite efficient. The hiring managers were quick and communicative, and I received notification about the status of my applications quickly. I will say that it felt a bit impersonal given it was a phone call, and would have preferred a virtual interview, but it was ok.

Interview
Very simple 30 min remote interview. Asked decent questions but the job itself didn't seem appealing. They started with salary and asked me to confirm if I would like to move forward with the interview based on the salary.

Question 1
Are you familiar with Yelp? Are you familiar with your area? What is your favorite restaurant?
The Yelp Community Manager interview process consisted of 1 phone conversation with the hiring manager, a zoom with the hiring manager, extensive writing test and final zoom interview with another team member. All of the interviews were about 30 minutes or less, and I found them really casual and easier than at many other large corporate organizations I've interviewed with. I found that I didn't learn very many details about the role until the final interview, it was very candidate focused.
