Software Engineer II Interview Experience - Montreal, Quebec
Process
I applied online, and after one month, I was contacted by a recruiter via email for a telephonic interview. The phone interview was conducted via Webex (Cisco's video conferencing tool) with three interviewers. The telephonic interview was not difficult. First, they introduced their teams and work, then asked some questions about the projects on my resume. They also asked some technical questions. The last question was an easy coding problem with a shared screen. Two days later, I was informed about the second, half-day interview.
