I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Yelp
Interview
It was an onsite interview. The interviewer was friendly, but the questions I was asked had little to do about showing my demonstration, and more to do with how much HTML-specific knowledge I had. I felt like while I have the knowledge of a computer scientist, the questions were specifically "if you want to change the color of a button from green to red, what would you do". If this was an indication of the type of work I would do at the company, it is not something I am interested in.

Question 1
If you were to code a two column website, how would you do it?
Leetcode style interview online via link, then a 1 on 1 technical interview with a lead developer also online where you can ask questions about the role and working at yelp, later more in depth technical tests and finally references and psicological tests.

Question 1
Talk about the project you are the most proud of, why do you want to work at yelp
Very intense. 4 back to back 45 minute interviews. One behaviour and four technical interviews.
Nice people but got the vibe everyone was happy with the work as it wasn’t too challenging.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Yelp (Toronto, ON) in May 2025
Interview
Around 3 different rounds with a mix of behavioural and technical. Last round features on-site which lasts the whole day, where there are 2 dsa rounds, 1 system design round and 1 recruiter round to end the day.
