Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe one of your biggest challenges and how you overcame it.
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Yahoo in Nov 2009
Interview
Quick scheduling and timely meeting with hiring manager.
Standard advice of being prepared applies. However, be extra thorough on job requirements and product, from competitors, to market position, to industry. Basically read up and know every aspect.
If you were to practice, basically find someone who uses the product and have a long conversation with them about how to improve. And don't be constrained by the limitations you may read about Yahoo in the news. I guess no one wants a downer to come into the company.
