Software Development Engineer Interview Experience - Calgary, Canada
Process
I applied online. The process took 1 week.
Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.
Questions
The first question is a LeetCode-style algorithm question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend and frontend individually or together.
