      Financial Analyst Interview

      Oct 12, 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Omaha, NE
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Yahoo (Omaha, NE)

      Interview

      The interview itself went fine. The interviewers were friendly and we had small talk to break the ice. The recruiters for Oath are doing a great job at steering candidates away rather than attract them though. If you work with Pierce Klein, be prepared for him to never respond to your emails. I get it, recruiters are busy….but following up several times over weeks (and sometimes no response at all) has made me lose respect for Oath. Recruiters are the face of the company and if they don’t treat candidates with respect, then they may turn away good talented people. I have worked with several recruiters and this experience was by far the most disappointing. I will not be applying again because I don’t want to deal with the recruiting experience again.

      The questions were not hard, but be prepared to give figures on how you have saved your company money in the past.

      Financial Analyst Interview

      Oct 12, 2011
      Anonymous employee
      Sunnyvale, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Yahoo (Sunnyvale, CA) in May 2011

      Interview

      I first received an email regarding my application and informing me that I was scheduled later that week for two phone interviews back to back. Both of these were very standard interviews just going over basic facts about the company, questions about my interests in the company, interests in finance etc. The next day I got an email saying I was scheduled for an on campus interview the next week at their Sunnyvale location. It was a full day of interviewing starting at 11 and ending at 3:30 in the afternoon. There were about 10 other candidates and we began by going up and getting an overview/orientation about the day from HR where we were sitting in a conference room and learning about what we would be doing. Then we ate lunch with one of the finance execs and a few recent graduates who had also been interns at one point and who talked to us about the interview process and tried to make us feel comfortable. Then we were each set up with our first of four interviewers and we walked to a conference room where we would sit all day through four interviews. The first was a case study, pretty straightforward but kind of difficult if you aren't expecting to answer those kinds of questions, it was my first case study interview. Then the next interview was behavioral, and the last two were both just going over my resume and experience, situational type interviewing. Each of the four interviews lasted about half an hour. Everyone was very nice and friendly, not an intimidating interview process, most interviews turned into conversations easily. I received a call about my offer about 2 days later and then a packet in the mail with all the information the next day. I was given three weeks to accept my offer. Out of the ten or eleven candidates I interviewed with, 2 others got offers and accepted them.
