The interview went well, quite challenging. The panel seems to be quite experienced. It was a lengthy process but I didn't not crack the interview. Be prepared really well, as you would need a bunch of skills to crack this

I applied for the role mid July and a recruiter reached out to me a week or so later. We had our initial phone screen and it went really well. I was notified that I would be moving on to speak with the hiring manager, and that was scheduled the very same week. The hiring manager call went really well and I received positive feedback that I would be moving forward for the final round. My recruiter coordinated the final round, and sent me an email with the schedule and that was the last communication sent from her dated August 1st. A week + passed by and I had not received any communication following the interviews, and I reached out to the recruiter for an update. A week later she responded stating that they were still “ deliberating over candidates”, and the role was actually reposted during this time. Ultimately the biggest theme here is an overall lack of communication. To have a candidate waiting for weeks without a singular update or even a rejection after spending time interviewing from start to finish shows the gross power imbalances between candidates and employers. I hope that in the future a better system is in place where recruiters at Yahoo are able to better communicate with candidates. And even if it is a rejection ghosting a candidate is never the answer.
