Backend Software Engineer Interview Experience - Sydney, Australia

April 2, 2023

Process

I was referred and received a first-round call from HR. However, as I haven't previously coded with Java, I wasn't considered in any capacity. There is no option to sit the entrance exam in a language you're familiar with.

It's a little disappointing, as I have 4 years of Ruby experience. It's safe to assume Canva receives enough applications from quality engineers who have the Java experience required.

Questions

Do you believe you'll be able to pass the Java-based entrance exam?
