      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Sep 2, 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Santa Monica, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Yahoo (Santa Monica, CA) in Feb 2014

      Interview

      Two phone screens - one involved live coding in a shared doc. Then an on-site interview with several engineers. Lots of writing code on whiteboards. It was long and thorough, but not uncomfortable. Everyone was pretty friendly and supportive. As someone who later conducted interviews there, I can tell you that they want you to succeed. Although you may or may not be a good fit for the specific role that they are trying to fill.
