What a journey it's been! 🇮🇳 It wasn't easy opening a new office in a new country during a global pandemic, but the team managed to create a sense of community & camaraderie among our Hyderabad colleagues that aligns with the culture and values of Yext offices around the world.
At Yext, we’re lucky to have 71 amazing interns participate in our Summer 2022 program. 😎 These Yexters work across our DC & NYC offices on a number of teams ranging from Software Engineering, Technical Engagement, Infrastructure, & more.
