Interviewed Feb 2012 in Austin, TX (took 2 weeks)
Initially it took them just over two weeks to set up the initial interview. Once I was interviewed it was a three step process (HR interview, manager interview, phone interview to assess selling skills) that took about a week. I was in a training class the following week iwht a group of five other people.

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 2 days)
Initially found the job on one of the standard job aggregation, can't remember which one. Was contacted a few weeks later via e-mail, where the company expressed interest in setting up a time to talk on the phone. After the phone interview I was asked to come to the office for an in person interview. The office environment was very nice, everyone seemed friendly and laid back. The interview consisted of a few stages, first talking to some of the upper level management, then taking a quiz with some critical thinking situations, and finally going over it.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in New York, NY (took 3 days)
The interviewers were not available during the scheduled time. I shadowed an employee for about an hour waiting for management to be available. During that time I was able to determine if I would be a fit or not, also dictated the rest of the interview process. If you are interested in being in a room full of people cold calling and hounding businesses for a quick sale then this would be for you. After you make a sale it gets passed on so there is no availability for upselling your clients. You have to meet your numbers and can not draw on relationships you have already made.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Austin, TX (took 2 days)
Yodle was hiring big time. They had an open house coming up and I was going to go to it but I decided to apply online first. A recruiter contacted me and we talked a little bit about the position. She invited me to come in to meet with her. I went to the in person interview: They had me listen to a current rep call people. (The job is straight up cold calling all day long.) He was a nice guy but its a very loud work environment. Every time they make a sale the ring this gong. Anyway after listening with him I meet with the recruiter. We had an ok..conversation. She invited me back the next day to meet with the hiring manger. The next day I meet with the hiring manger. He was a cool guy laid back. There wasn't too much to the interview just in general questions and information. He didn't seem too excited about what he was doing. They sent me an e-mail like a week later saying they weren't going to move forward with me. I was kind of like whatever. I don't think it was the right job for me.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 3 weeks)
I applied online at yodle.com. 2 days later a recruiter called me back. She went over my resume and asked me some basic questions about my background and my familiarity with Yodle. She then scheduled an in person interview for me with one of the hiring managers. There was a mix up with the interview time when I got there. The recruiter told me one time but the time they had was 2 hours later. They asked if I wouldn't mind coming back in a hour. I didn't mind because I had something else to do later that day in the area anyway. I then interviewed with one of their Sales Managers. He asked me some questions about my background, experience and also asked me some questions related to my personality as well as how I've handled myself in certain situations. He also asked me some questions to assess whether I would be a good culture fit. He then gave me an opportunity to ask my questions.
After the interview, the recruiter called me and said it must have went well because they want me to come back for another interview. Booked the 2nd interview. This one consisted of me sitting with one of their top performers followed by a panel interview with the Sales Manager and one of the Area Directors. The Director was a lot tougher than the Manager. After a few questions we did a roleplay where I had to sell the Director an order of bottle water for his store. The recruiter prepped me ahead of time that I needed to make sure I close so I made sure I handled all of his objections and closed the sale. He then let me ask questions and mentioned that I had some good qualities for what they are looking for.
Unfortunately, I guess those qualities wasn't good enough because about 4 days later, I got a call from the recruiter saying that they decided not to offer me the position. I suspect the reason why I didn't get it was because I'm self employed selling services similar to what they are selling and they saw me as a flight risk and decided to go with someone who was less of a risk (i.e. someone selling for a company instead of being self employed). I can understand that. I've been a hiring manager before so I know how that goes.
Overall, I like the company and the people there seem very nice and friendly. They also seem to like their jobs. I asked some random guy in the bathroom how he likes the job and he said he enjoys it and he's doing really well there. So it's definitely worth applying if you want to work there. With that said, I wouldn't bother if you don't have any sales experience and I also wouldn't bother if you are self employed because you probably won't get it.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Scottsdale, AZ (took 2 weeks)
I was really excited about the interview. I first had a phone interview with someone from recruiting in New York. She was super friendly and asked many situational questions. I thought it went well, and she set up an interview for me to go into the Scottsdale office to meet with three people. I went in and was kept waiting for a while. The office seemed fun- they had games set up and seemed like mostly young people. I was interviewed by three people, only one was the manager of the dept I'd be working in so I didnt get why I spoke to the others. The others didn't even know what to ask me and it was a little strange. The manager have me his number and told me to reach out if I had any questions and said he wanted to move on it quickly and I'd hear back in the next few days. Well a couple weeks went by and I heard nothing. Finally after 2 weeks, I received an email saying they were interested in other candidates.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in New York, NY (took 1 week)
I traveled down to NYC to have a 1 on 1 interview after speaking with one of their recruiters over the phone. My interview lasted only about 10 minutes and was a complete waste of my time. I have a background in sales and marketing and I was asked which area I would rather work in and replied that I'd be willing to throw my hand into either one because I have experience in both. Apparently they'd like you to have your heart set on one item. How can a recent graduate find what he really wants if not given the opportunity to experience both? Shortly after answering that questions the interview was over. Definitely not a company I'd want to work for if you're open to learning different processes.
