      New York, NY

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Yelp (New York, NY) in Feb 2015

      Interview

      Got a call which was great very inviting and exciting Then had my first interview with a female was very inviting and informative about the roll and position , did two role plays went well . Second part of interview was some level of disrespectful he kept looking at his phone mentioning his bday weekend was coming and how he misplaced his ID in a local bar over the week , which didn't bother me at first but when i noticed nothing i was saying he was paying attention to and was starting got rush me throw the process. I understand this is a aggressive sales role but this was a interview for us to build some type of confidence in each other . I really was open and excited to this opportunity but the rude way of the 2nd interviewer let me know that yelp is not where i would feel comfort as new career choice. There not diverse and he rushed me out the door and didn't respond to my BYE lol . Im not sensitive but this is a Job and business and the 2nd interviewer had no tact of professionalism.

      The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Yelp

      Interview

      There is an initial screening call followed by another virtual interview where they just try to get to know you. The first call asked about eligibility to work in the US and logistical questions/info about the company. One of the interviews involves a sales pitch role play but wasn't too difficult.
