I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Yandex (Moscow, Moskva) in Aug 2015
Interview
It had to go in English, only one person in the room could speak the language decently. It seemed like the team was doing this for the first time. The team was aware of my qualifications prior to the interview yet they started quizzing me on stuff I never claimed to know.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked questions that involved knowledge of their internal procedures. They might as well have asked me the color of their kids' hair.
