I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Yext (College Park, MD) in Oct 2022
Interview
There was 1 on-campus technical interview after career fair. It was on the easier side. Next, there was 1 technical interview over zoom (hard). This was harder and there were followup questions. Finally, 1 behavioral interview, which is like any other behavioral interview
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Question about recursion. Question about debugging.
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.
