Application
I interviewed at Yelp
Interview
The application process took quite a long time. The interviewer was friendly and nice. The questions asked were all technical and entry-level, so be well prepared, and you will be fine.
There are five rounds of interviews. The first is a 30-minute HR screening, followed by a 1-hour live coding interview at a LeetCode medium level. The third round is a 15-minute cultural interview (optional). The fourth round is a 2-hour session that includes live coding, planning, and HR discussions.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Yelp (Toronto, ON) in Apr 2025
Interview
1 online coding screening and 2 rounds. First round a coding interview with a member of the Engineering team, and second round an onsite interview, with 4 interviews of system design, coding, behavioural, and "past projects". Overall the interviews were good, but after the last one, I didn't hear anything back for 2 weeks and then a rejection. When I asked for clarification, they emailed backed 3 weeks later saying "you didn't ask enough questions on the system design interview" which is their usual response, and not true in my case.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A lot of NLP basics in the coding interviews, like separating bi-grams and tokenizing a text using specific requirements.
