I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Yandex (Moscow, Moskva) in Jul 2013
Interview
Nice friendly people, easy questions. Lasted about 3 hours, easy questions about mysql, c++, one logical question which doesn't really matter, triangle test cases from Myers. Half of the interview they talked about how cool it is to work with them) Called the very next day to tell me i'm in, even though i haven't had any testing experience before yandex. Don't really know what else to say, it was easy and salary was pretty good for that moment.
Good, interesting, challenging. It was my fist interview and it was stressful for my, but hr was very nice. Good, interesting, challenging. It was my fist interview and it was stressful for my, but hr was very nice.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Yandex
Interview
The interview took place in 3 stages. Theory, practice and technical section. Each section lasted an hour. The interviewers were polite and responsive. But the recruiting department can ignore you for weeks. While the recruiter ignored me, the vacancy was closed.
First of all you have make a small task, then you have to talk with HR - to acess ypur soft skills. and after that you get invetation for interview with IT-specialist.
