I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Yext in Nov 2019
Interview
I had 3 interviews - 2 technical and 1 behavioral. The technical interviews both involved interesting problems related to recursion and filling spots in a grid. The interviewers were very friendly and helpful. I made some mistakes on both interviews but the interviewers were more interested in my thought process. The behavioral interview consisted of questions about challenges you've faced in the past and how you overcame them.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had a group member who was not contributing and how you handled the situation.
For the Yext Software Engineering Internship, the first round interview was a technical Interview with one debugging question and one leet code style programming question, plus the opportunity to ask questions at the end. Second-round interviews are usually behavioral.
I just did the first round but it was a first round technical and then more after. I think it is technical, then another 2 technicals and then behavioral final.
Very chill, interviewers were helpful, 2 technicals and a behavioral. The first round was 2 problems, one leetcode and one debugging. The second round was one problem, the third round was behavioral.
