How heavily does Yelp weigh technical rounds vs behavioral?

Recently had my onsite and I absolutely devestated the coding and system design rounds, but my behavioral I didn't get a good read on. What's the breakdown for the Yelp interview process?

Seems like a serious misuse of the word

There two behavioural rounds that look out if you’re a jerk. Its probably more important than the coding rounds

Behavioral rounds are necessary but not sufficient. Yelp takes this seriously, a bad one is more than enough to kill your offer. Guess you'll find out soon. Good luck

I can’t wait for the response. Honestly how long do the interviewers take to come to a decision?

Everyone on the panel is strongly encouraged to submit feedback within 24h of the interview. How soon that gets to the hiring manager... varies. After, an initial offer is made up, a VP approves it, and then maybe you will hear. For any candidate on a tight timeline, make sure you tell your recruiter. They will hunt decision makers down while they're eating lunch if necessary.
