Staff Software Engineer Interview Experience - Canada

August 1, 2022

Process

I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn.

We set up an initial call, followed by "phone" interviews.

I had to clear two interviews:

  • A coding interview.
  • An interview about a project I worked on recently.

The project interview went great. However, in the coding interview, I overcomplicated things for myself and opted for a long solution instead of the optimal one, which would have been much shorter. This realization only occurred to me two seconds after I finished the call.

I received a rejection email soon after.

Despite the outcome, the interviewers were nice, and overall, it was a positive experience.

Questions

Describe a project or a feature you worked on (diagrams recommended).

An exercise that sums up to: Given a start date and end date, print the time in 5-minute intervals using a specific format.
