Software Engineer Interview Experience - Toronto, Ontario
Process
First round recruiter screen, which I passed.
There were questions about:
- Times I mentored people
- My experience
- Why I'm looking for new roles
- My most impactful project
I passed the recruiter screen and was moved to a technical round on Zoom with two engineers.
Questions
I had to solve some data engineering questions related to calculating the total cost of shipping various quantities of products. This involved using a JSON object that contained information on shipping costs by country. There were four parts to the problem, but I stumbled on the second part and therefore didn't get through.
It was a very fair interview process, and the questions seemed to mimic typical processes at Stripe.
