J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Yahoo (Bengaluru) en mars 2010
Entretien
Started with a Phone Interview with a panel of 2 people from Yahoo, One a Program Manager and the other being an HR representative. This was for a duration of 1 hour. Consisted of normal questions as to:
- Current profile
- Which teams/all co-located or geo-separated
- SCRUM based development, this was one of the biggest topic discussed
Following this, i was call for a face to face interview at the Bangalore office. Yahoo provided for the air-fare and actually provided me the tickets as well. However there was no offer for the transport cost within the city from Home to Airport / Airport to Yahoo and vice versa.
Surprisingly, although the interview was scheduled nearly 15 days ago, people from the panel were missing or not in office. I was made to wait for an hour before the process started with an adhoc panel and with a couple of people taking the interview over the phone while i was in the Yahoo office.
Again the interview mainly consisted of discussions on the projects i have worked one and again the biggest factor was the SCRUM based development methodology.
Post this, i had phone interviews with Director Program Management, based in US, and then again with a Sr. Dir. Program Management. These two interviews happened a couple of weeks after Yahoo office interviews.
I was informed approx. 1 week post the last phone interview that the deal would not work out.
Overall an OK experience, but the time taken was not expected since this was detailed out to be an urgent requirement.

"Standard" program management questions and situations were given during the interview. Some examples include:
- How do you track progress?
- How do you know when you are "done"?
- What's the toughest issue you had to deal with?
- What did you do about it?
- If the project you are initially assigned is in trouble how do you get it back on track?

Just got an email from an HR representative to schedule a phone interview. The phone call took 40 mins and I was asked general questions about my current role and experience, as well as math and questions related to the advertising industry. Some of the questions are a bit naive...

It took a long 7 months because CEO must review and approve every hire at every level. It must up/down multiple times via Yahoo Talent Acquisition folks, the department, then CEO. If the position is not at a high management level, the final CEO approval can get postponed many times. Also, there is a voting process with a minimum of 5 interviewers required. They must write feedback and rank you, totaling a high enough score that an offer will come. CEO approves your offer before you are told what it will be, making countering impractical, as it further delays the entire process. Talent Acquisition quickly sets up the interviews, but then everything drags after that.
