Embedded Software Developer Interview Experience - Burnaby, Canada
Process
The first round test is a two-hour remote test. HR will send a Word doc to you. You need to send it back in two hours. The questions are quite wide, but as long as you've done some dev work in Linux networking, you should be OK to handle the majority of questions.
The second round is an on-site interview with six interviewers in one room. They will go through your CV and ask questions. This part is fairly easy as long as you know your stuff.
Questions
Go through the CV. I asked a lot of questions. You should know something about network and security, at least.
