I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Yext in Sep 2020
Interview
Everything was a normal interview process until there was one round of technical. The guy I had interviewing me was a software engineering but he was not welcome at all. I asked him a question about clarification of a problem and he did not even reply.
The first round of interview is one hour long which covers one technical interview question and one debugging question. The second round is around 2 hours with more coding questions.
I first met with a Yext recruiter at my colleges online career fair, submitted my resume and submitted my job application. I was accepted and then had two technical interviews and then a behavioral interview. They were all about a week/ two weeks apart and scheduled around 5 days beforehand.
