I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Yelp
Interview
I registered online on the career fair on September. First I get the online assignment. It's a easy task and I have 15 minutes to finish it. Then, a HR reply to me and arrange a Skype interview. It was a 45 min interview. In the interview, the interviewer talk about what he does first and then go through my resume. Then ask me some questions about c++ and python.

a programming problem about webpages links. It is similar to a graph problem. Give two vertices in a directed graph, and find whether there is a path from one to the other.
Leetcode style interview online via link, then a 1 on 1 technical interview with a lead developer also online where you can ask questions about the role and working at yelp, later more in depth technical tests and finally references and psicological tests.
