      Human Resources Business Partner Interview

      9 Dec 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Yahoo (Sunnyvale, CA) in Feb 2013

      Interview

      From start to finish the whole process took about 3 months. YES 3 months. But since then (March 2013) they've really worked to streamline the process and bring in hires quicker. Was contacted by a recruiter, then had a phone interview w/the recruiter and HM. Then in person with the HM and 2 people. Then invited back to meet 3 more from the business. That part was done in about 2 weeks. Then it was a waiting game w/the recruiter to get the offer approved thru the hiring committee who review every single offer- by function- and so the candidate has to put together info on their experience, accolades and awards, compensation info- and then they do their thing adding in interview ratings etc...and finally when it's approved by the hiring committee- the offer letter is given. I was not in a hurry and was already employed so went thru the process. A few months later it's a good place to be, but A LOT of change...so expect things to be very fluid. Nothing is set you could be ready to launch then it will change because the CEO said so. Opportunity to grow and morale is picking up- but still quite a bit of chaos!

      Question 1

      Nothing difficult or unexpected- pretty routine based on resume.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Yahoo (New York, NY)

      Interview

      I was contacted for a phone screen and after sharing my availability, I was ghosted. I even followed up, but after getting no response to my outreach, i took this as indication that maybe the recruiter had changed their mind?! Either way, if you are reaching out, please have the courtesy to follow up, even if something has changed.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Sunnyvale, CA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Yahoo (Sunnyvale, CA) in Nov 2012

      Interview

      Very smooth process although more interaction w/staffing coordinator (planning interviews) than the recruiter. Recruiter reached out to me initiallly and at end w/an offer.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Questions around rolling out half' baked' programs that the CEO requests but is not sure is needed!
