I applied online. I interviewed at Yahoo (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2024
Interview
I had interview with hiring manager, but it felt like a waste of time. The interviewer seemed disinterested, even yawning while I was discussing my projects. The interview ran over by half an hour past the scheduled time. I learned that they have a large monolithic system using outdated technologies. Overall, it was disappointing and felt like a waste of time.
