Software Engineer Interview Experience - Toronto, Ontario
Process
The interview process was straightforward. I had a phone screen with a recruiter to go over my resume. Then, a 2-hour technical interview with questions from what became my day-to-day tasks. These questions were algorithm questions, e.g., "how will you solve this problem?", etc.
The next round was behavioral, with a lot of "describe a time when..." questions. The final round was offer negotiation.
