Software Engineer Interview Experience - Toronto, Canada
Process
IBM started with a few initial emails: confirmations of interest and something about export validation.
Then it went quiet for a few weeks before I was contacted out of the blue for a coding challenge – a web-based, non-monitored (but timed) coding test.
After that, another two weeks passed before I received confirmation of a live video interview (not in-person).
Following that, they conducted a second interview, then additional paperwork and emails.
