Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Canada
Process
15-minute HackerRank challenge, followed by a 45-minute Skype interview with an engineer.
The Skype interview included 20-30 minutes for technical questions. The interviewer asked a LeetCode Hard problem that was extremely difficult to solve unless you had seen the question before.
Absolutely ridiculous expectations. I will definitely not be reapplying here.
