Sharing my interview experience for Software Engineer 2 recently with Yahoo.

Technical Phone Screen :

  • Question on Graphs (don't exactly remember the question)

After a week, asked to schedule final loop interviews :

First Round : Coding

  • Was asked to code a data structure to add and remove contacts and when fetching it needs to fetch the lexographically smaller value.
  • Used HashMap and TreeSet to solve the question.

Second Round : System Design

  • Was asked to easy-level code to validate if it is valid IPV4, and had an extension to the same to validate if it is valid IPV4/CIDR.
  • For SD, was asked to design a movie ticket booking system.

Third Round : Behavioral

  • Multiple questions regarding past experience
  • In-depth on the projects mentioned on resume.
  • The HM was not really interested as I was not an SDE 2 in my current company.

Overall Experience :

  • On Coding, it was really good and easy-mid level.
  • HM round was not so great.
