Three rounds (excluding initial phone call with recruiter). First round is technical with a current partner engineer, with a second engineer shadowing. Second round is a presentation with a manager, where you role-play explaining the Yext API to a publisher. Third round consists of a coffee chat with 2 partner engineers, a technical round that's similar to the first one but a bit harder, and two behavioral interviews with the manager from the previous round and someone from leadership.

Interview
The interview process seemed very confusing and is very different from other interviews.
There was an initial call with the recruiter, with whom I had to follow up twice to schedule the initial call.
First-round was a technical interview, with very easy questions.
Second-round was an API presentation, I had to spend time, and present the Yext Api to the interview who is the pretend client
The company did not respond to me, even after 10 days after the second interview. They sent a reject email after I followed up with the recruiter.
The interview process was highly disappointing, as they had no basic courtesy, to give me a response, even though I spent a lot of time preparing the presentation for the second round. None of the recruiters respond on time.

The process went by smoothly and it was well organized. It was slightly slower than usual but not a big deal. Everyone was friendly and the technical stuff was good as well. Overall, it was great.
