Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Canada
Process
The process consisted of a recruiter screen, hiring manager chat, tech screen, behavioral, and system design, which is the usual gamut of interview parts.
The process was reasonably fast, and everyone was decent and respectful.
I blew them off because I had better things lined up.
Questions
Tech screen question: fix and implement a really basic front-end project like a snake game using JavaScript.
