Frontend Software Engineer (Graduate) Interview Experience - Auckland, New Zealand
Process
I was contacted within a week of applying to schedule a one-on-one chat with an in-house recruiter over Google Meet.
We talked about my work history and I was asked some technical questions about JavaScript.
After this, there was a one-hour technical interview with one of the front-end engineers. This was done via HackerRank.
The final interview was a three-hour technical interview with several software engineers.
I'm going to leave out specifics about each of the interviews, as these were supplied in great detail at every step.
Overall, a great experience. Everyone was lovely, and expectations were laid out very clearly.
No take-home assignment.

Canva Work Experiences
- 5.0Treats you like a humanSenior Software Engineer • Former EmployeeWellington, Wellington, New ZealandFebruary 12, 2024Pros: At every point in my short tenure there, I was treated like a human with a life that sometimes gets messy and requires an alternative working schedule, last-minute days off, or medical treatment. Even in the end, with needing to escape a toxic home life, they helped me get home safely and not have to worry about my job, treating me like my own safety was more important. The culture is unmatched from my past experience. Everyone is friendly, with lots of opportunities to make friends and form good working relationships. It pays great for the region.Cons: A 6-month probationary period was not disclosed to me until after I had joined the company. It was probably just an oversight, but it was a source of stress.
