I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Yandex in Aug 2024
Interview
Several coding rounds. Some interviewers are friendly and helpful, others are arrogant and just make obstacles during the problem solving process, rather than help.
The recruiter was arrogant saying that there are plenty of very senior specialists trying to apply now (in Russia in 2024), which is barely true.
