The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Yelp (San Francisco, CA) in May 2011
Interview
The interview process at Yelp is pretty rigorous but quite clear, every step of the way. It begins with an HR rep calling you to ask general questions about you, your interests, your motivations and passion. If the rep finds that you're a good fit, you get an e-mail from them with details on a scheduled interview date. The interview for "Account Executive" is about 90 minutes long. You meet 1:1 with 3 various Sales Managers. Each one will ask you various general questions about yourself as well as general Sales-oriented questions or implement role playing.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Yelp (Austin, TX) in May 2026
Interview
The interview process was pleasant from start to finish. It included a recruiter phone screen, a video call with the sales manager, a role play exercise, and the opportunity to implement the manager’s feedback.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One question they asked during my interview was what specifically about the role made me feel it was a strong fit for my background and experience.
The interview process with Yelp was a very organized experience. From the first email after I put in my application, to the offer extension call, I always felt well informed and included.
It was a one time interview over video call with a pre call before. One on one with a training manager. Pretty simple not too hard at all. Lasted 30 minutes with questions and role plays.
