I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Yahoo in Apr 2010
Interview
Initial phone interview was about 40 minutes and was mostly basic Java programming questions.
On site interview had five interviewers including hiring manager and senior member of the group. Many questions were related to describing / pseudo coding various search algorithms.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
describe and compare the following page replacement policies: FIFO, LRU, LFU, Clock.
No technical concepts were discussed. None of the employees actually talked about building software (rather corporate/business nuances). It was a very quick and short process. I don't think they have much of an engineering culture.

Question 1
Challenges working with teams, describe a project, explaining technical concepts to non-technical people
Amazing very well structured and it was not the hard. Questions on projects and design. Took me through the work I would be doing and also spoke about how it would connect to their product.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Yahoo (Cupertino, CA) in Mar 2017
Interview
The overall interview process is great. The questions are very straight forward, prepare to talk about your experience and why are you looking to work for the company. The interview process takes about two week.
