Software Engineer Interview Experience - Toronto, Canada
Process
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks.
The company uses a software called CoderPad, which includes working environments for various languages. The expectation is that you can use the console and write a working program. The questions themselves were not difficult. A refresher on common data structures and interview algorithms will allow you to get them quickly. You should bring your own laptop.
Questions
The questions were wrapped in financial terms and use cases.

- 5.0Great company, great mission, great peopleSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeToronto, ONJanuary 14, 2018Pros: The other reviews here speak correctly of the many pros of this organization. For me the most critical is that the fundamental mission is inspiring, worthwhile, and socially very important: make financial services super simple and accessible to everyone irrespective of income or net worth.Cons: It's a busy place with a lot going on. Generally each employee has a lot of autonomy and with that the obligation to take ownership of their domain and provide value to clients. Some people may find that kind of open-ended work situation hard to manage.
