Java Backend Software Engineer Interview Experience - Canada
Process
I had a 90-minute technical interview, split between two interviewers, with each taking 45 minutes.
Interviewer 1 asked about Java and Spring Boot for 10 minutes, followed by a 30-minute coding challenge and 5 minutes for my questions.
The coding problems involved designing a discount checkout cart and solving an array-based task.
Both interviewers were very informative and supportive throughout the process. Overall, it was a well-structured interview and a very positive experience.
