Java Developer Interview Experience - Toronto, Canada
Process
I applied online.
The process was 1 phone screen, then an on-site consisting of 2 pair programming algorithmic question rounds, 1 culture round, and 1 architecture round. The interviews went well, and they hinted that they really liked me, but the next day they asked for my compensation expectations. They said it's too high, but they would get back to me. The next email they sent said I was not a good "fit". The company seemed good though.
