Software Development Engineer (SDE) Interview Experience - Vancouver, Canada

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The first interview was to solve two problems online, within a time limit and without an interviewer.

After that, I had an "On Site" portion.

This consisted of four 45-minute interviews: two coding, one design, and one leadership.

Every interviewer included leadership and behavioral questions at the beginning of their session.

I did not enjoy the interview overall.

The schedule was not provided, so each interview was a surprise as to which type it would be.

One interviewer gave me an angry look when I attempted to repeat what I understood from his words. I would never expect that from an interviewer.
