Software Engineer Interview Experience - Toronto, Ontario
Process
A recruiter reached out via LinkedIn.
I had an intro call, then was scheduled for a Karat interview.
The Karat interview experience was good, and the interviewer was engaging.
I was then scheduled for the final round, which was 4 hours and included coding, systems design, data modeling, and behavioral components.
Overall, it was a really positive experience.
After receiving the verbal offer, I was given the opportunity to talk to some of the engineering directors.
