First of all I wrote a letter to apply. Then I was contacted and offered several times for a telephone interview - I was not in California to meet in person. Then I had a second interview, also by phone. I was offered the role soon after my second phone interview.

What are you looking to achieve from this internship?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Yewno (Redwood City, CA) in Oct 2018
Interview
3 rounds in 3.5 Hours.
1. With Engineering Head: Started with string manipulation code challenge: Important to describe your plan of action and how you're thinking about the problem.
2. With Senior & Junior Developer #1: Discussed preferences regarding design patterns with respect to asynchronous control flows (async/await or promises). Asked me to psuedo-code cancelling an async request if necessary. Interesting problem, never thought it through before, but was able to arrive at a logical answer after thinking about it out loud, and was accepted. Was asked what the most challenging feature set I built was - discussed at length my response.
3. With Senior & Junior Developer #2: Built a small React app demonstrating my code style and answered questions regarding the choices behind my code style and design patterns. Afterward, was asked a knowledge level question about designing a search bar from scratch. Senior dev was looking for specific answers to minimize unecessary api calls.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Yewno (New York, NY) in Jul 2018
Interview
Kept postponing the phone interview 4 times. Didn't get a call the first time, after which got an e-mail with recruiter to postpone. Second time the same scenario. Last time the guy calls me 10 minutes before asking to push it half hour back. And... he doesn't call again. So unprofessional and frustrating.
