Interviewed Apr 2010 in Champaign, IL (took 5 days)
The position was for a Software Engineer in QA. It was a contract position for 1 year at Yahoo!'s office at Champaign, IL . I was contacted by a team member directly and was asked basic job experience questions. Next I was called on-site where the entire team interviewed me. Five interviews of 45 mins each. Questions tested my Perl and database skills. Some questions related to QA. Got an offer within 2 days.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in Sunnyvale, CA (took 3 weeks)
Very professional. Initial phone screen was quite easy - few questions about data structures and algorithm fundamentals. The on-site process included four 1:1 interviews broken down into categories such as Networks, DS & Algorithms, Testing, and Databases/General Concepts. Be prepared to write some code.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Sunnyvale, CA (took 5 days)
I had a phone interview where it was completely about the previous QA Experience.
Later I had an interview which had questions from Java, Database,XML, X-Query, HTTP protocol.
Then it was in person interview where I happen to meet with 4 persons and each one interviewed for about 45 minutes, everyone was good and each had different questions. I really felt kind of worthful questions.

Interviewed Mar 2007 (took 2 weeks)
The hiring manager called me asked general questions regarding my current experience , then started asking about some testing concepts. The a week later I was called for onsite interview, by 5 people I think. Each person will ask different area of questions like QA experience, Programming, Database, Linux skill. One interviewer came with the laptop and I could use his laptop to perform some basic web programming to demonstrate the QA areas. I was surprise I wasn't asked to do any programming demo live, it was all about concepts , methodologies.
