Software Engineer Interview Experience - Canada
Process
Applied through the university's job posting for a 4-month co-op position. I received an on-campus interview about a month later, which consisted almost entirely of technical questions.
I was given a computer and several coding problems, and I interacted with the interviewer as I solved them. One of the questions required knowledge of C-style strings, which I was rusty on.
Questions

char *string1 = "string";
char string2[] = "string";
