Full Stack Engineer Interview Experience - Toronto, Canada

Process

I applied online, and the process took two months. I thought it went well, given the difficulties of the technical test. But they didn't reply with a no until prompted, and they did not provide feedback unless you asked. The recruiter also sounded shady during the phone call before the in-person interview.

There was a four-hour in-person interview with four different people. During the in-person round, one of them said that they don't care about experience for this role, which is a very cringey thing to say, given that the role was full-stack and that experience makes a huge difference. Another interviewer gave me the test in Java and didn't see the issue when I pointed it out, then noticed the issue much later. The system design interviewer had a look like he didn't get what I was doing until the end. He honestly seemed like a guy who gave the same test over and over and now thinks everyone is an idiot for not getting it his way. Only one of them had actual interview abilities, and not surprisingly, it went well with him.

I learned a few things about their work-life balance problems, so it's not a loss for me. C'est la vie.
