Too many modern companies masquerade behind a thin wall of "values" whilst not truly caring about any of them, or anything really, apart from profits. Canva is a place where it's evident from the moment you step in the door that strives with all its might to uphold the values that it believes in, with a team of extremely talented and passionate people all doing their part to make the world a better place.
And of course, on top of that are all of the amazing benefits:
The chance to work with and learn from some incredibly smart people, and the excitement that comes with being part of one of the fastest growing startups in the world.
Communication from/with upper management could be improved slightly. Whilst the intent is there, the execution occasionally leaves more to be desired.
I submitted my CV via the career page, and a person from the HR team contacted me to set up a phone interview. Three hours after the meeting, they informed me of the result. It was pretty fast and simple.
The process took about five weeks in total. It started with a 30-minute recruiter screen, then a peer technical interview focused on an AI-assisted coding challenge where I had to build a small feature using Cursor while narrating my reasoning. After
Round 1 consisted of general JavaScript questions asked by the recruiter. Round 2 involved a coding challenge with a senior engineer at Canva. I did not advance past Round 2, so I cannot comment further.
