Software Engineer Interview Experience - Canada

October 11, 2022
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The process is pretty straightforward:

  • HR interview
  • Manager interview
  • Coding interview
  • Nah (There are more, but I was thrown out here.)

I think the company has a decent path to a bright future. It sounds like the process is still being figured out. For my coding interview, the actual process was different than what was described in the scheduling email, so beware.

Questions

This LeetCode question involves graph building. The problem is of medium difficulty. What made it very hard was the attempt to sound practical by presenting a "real-world-like" scenario, requiring you to discern the LeetCode requirement yourself.

The interviewer did not provide much additional information or confirmation after I summarized my understanding, so it took me a while to realize I had gone in the wrong direction.
