I applied online. I interviewed at Yext in May 2025
Interview
The interview process started off with an initial phone screen going over your background and what skills or experience you have which would make you a good fit for the position. From there, it moved onto a video interview where you did a coding problem with an engineer from the company sitting in. The engineer doesn't really provide much input and it is more that you are coding and they are watching with little to no interaction.

Question 1
The main thing that stood out to me was they asked a question related to DFS or BFS(depending how you choose to solve] in the coding interview. It is nothing too hard but have to be prepared.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Yext in Jan 2025
