Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. El proceso duró 6 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Yandex (Moscú, )
Entrevista
The interview process consisted of two phone interviews and two more on-site interviews. The phone interviews were quite simple, they asked me a few general questions and a few technical questions. The main purpose of the phone interview was to check that you met the general requirements for the position.
In the office I was interviewed by several people from different teams. They asked a lot of tech questions and asked to solve several logical tasks. I liked it that they did not expect a perfect solution to these tasks, they just wanted me to identify the main problems in the tasks and describe the way I would solve them.
