Software Engineer, Backend Interview Experience - Canada
Process
I first applied online on LinkedIn for Software Engineer, Backend. A recruiter then reached out to me with a unique email subject "
After the recruiter screening, she sent me another email right after it and booked my phone technical interview. I booked it a week after to prep for it. The interviewer came on time and asked me a really interesting OOP question that involved Algo & DS.
Unfortunately, I did not pass the interview as I wasn't able to code it on time, but I solved the question and wrote the pseudocode.
