I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Yext (New York, NY) in Oct 2017
Interview
I had an on-campus interview and an on-site, 4 round interview. The first interview was a 30 minute behavioral interview, the 2nd was a debugging interview, and the third and fourth were the usual coding interviews. HR was pretty nice and accommodating. 2 of my four interviewers seemed like stereotypical , unsociable tech guys while the other two were rather nice.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
On campus: Given two strings determine if there is a one to one mapping between each letter in the string. On-site : Debug Conway’s game of life, snake key pattern of a matrix (the problem was a disguised diagonal traversal of a matrix), word break (see LeetCode), and find all possible words given a telephone number.
Honestly a very smooth interview process. Interviewers were nice and friendly, WLB seems to be very good! Was a recruiter call, tech screening, onsite ( 4 rounds ), and then a final HR round
