Software Developer Interview Experience - Toronto, Ontario
Process
Overall, it was an average standard interview. First, I had a 30-minute video call with an interviewer. Later, there was a 1-hour algorithms challenge.
During the algorithm interview, the interviewer was very quiet. I tried my best to have a conversation, but I couldn't get my interviewer to say anything. I think their goal was to observe.
My thought was that if I talked through my thought process, they might offer a hint or challenge me to find a better solution.
