Yandex scores B on the Alion truth index (A is best, E worst), measured over 40 open roles re-checked against its own hiring board: 0% look like ghost listings, 80% have gone stale and 0% are the same role posted again. Its roles close in a median of 38 days. It measures how much of what this employer publishes turns into a real, finite search - not the employer as a workplace. How the index is computed

Overview

Yandex is a Russian internet company whose search engine launched in 1997 and which grew into the dominant technology group in its home market, running search, advertising, maps, ride hailing, food delivery, e-commerce and cloud services. Its Yandex Go application combines taxi, delivery and logistics into one of the most used consumer services in the country, while Alice and the YandexGPT model family provide its assistant and generative AI layer. Following the 2024 split of the former Yandex N.V., the Russian business was sold to a domestic consortium and now operates independently from Nebius Group, which inherited the international assets.
