      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Yahoo in February 2016.

      Interview

      Fairly straightforward overall. Started out with a phone screen where I was asked a few basic questions, then followed up with another phone screen. Never had an on-site interview, only phone interviews and emails with the recruiters before I got the offer.

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Yahoo (Sunnyvale, CA (US)) in December 2014.

      Interview

      After one or two days when my friend sent the referral email, I got the message from project manager, he arranged two round phone interviews with me, after that he informed me the result and talked to me regarding the potential projects I will work on. The whole process is good and project manager is very helpful. But it takes almost one month to get the final confirmation of the offer from HR.

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Yahoo (Sunnyvale, CA (US)) in July 2012.

      Interview

      Qualified by a contract agency about my experience and skill sets. Once approved and submitted I was next invited to Headquarters in Sunnyvale for a face to face.

      Interviewed with 3 people and was called back the next Monday for a position. Very fast, efficient process. They were more interested in how fast I could learn, figure something out rather than what I already knew. This is clearly how smart engineers used to recruit fellow brainiacs.

      Wisdom also shuns from fabled unicorns, purple squirrels ( although I swear I saw a few at Y!) and other fictitious entities as they are as real as the very definition of these wonderful businesses we seek employment with.
