Our Inside Sales Representative Hiring
Process Overview
Getting hired is more than hitting the “Apply” button, which is why our Sales Recruiting team has put together resources to help you prepare for the interview process – from submitting an application to receiving an offer, and every step in between.

Step 1:
Connect with a Recruiter
This phone call will be up to 30 minutes and is an opportunity for both you and Yelp to explore whether the Inside Sales Representative role is truly the right fit.

Step 2:
Meet a Hiring Manager
This video interview will be 30–45 minutes long with a Hiring Manager. You will dive into your experiences, skills, and what excites you most.
Growth opportunities
Experience growth like never before at Yelp. Your development at Yelp grows you for life. Your manager will guide you through your career and provide resources that empower you to explore your potential. Whether you’ve recently graduated, you’re early in your career, you’re looking to make a career change, or you’re a seasoned sales professional, the Yelp Sales Development Program (YSDP) will take your professional knowledge to a whole new level.
Remote work
Yelp's mission
We connect people to great local businesses. We encourage candidates to get familiar with Yelp’s products and business model prior to their interviews. We don’t expect you to be an expert by any means, but general knowledge is appreciated. The Investor Relations page is also a great place to learn where Yelp is at and where we’re headed.
Yelp's culture
Yelp is committed to partnering with leaders across the organization to promote equitable opportunities and foster a sense of belonging through employee resource groups.
Frequently asked questions
We allow up to one reschedule during the process. If you need to reschedule your phone interview, you are able to do so in the calendar invite that was emailed to you.
Generally, your recruiter will follow up with you within one week. If more time is needed, your recruiter will keep you updated with the expected timeline.

- If you're happy with the company/offer and have decided to accept, please let your recruiter know immediately so we can cancel your upcoming interview.
Yes! You will be paid your regular salary starting on your first day of employment.
