Toronto, ONPosted Jun 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process started with an OA, and from there it took about a month to get to an offer.

The recruiter was genuinely helpful and responsive right from the point my first interview was scheduled, and that set a good tone early.

The technical rounds weren’t the usual “classic” LeetCode-style algorithm questions. I had coding problems that felt more tailored than generic practice sets, and the interviewers were friendly throughout. The questions still tested solid problem-solving, but the overall vibe was less about memorized patterns and more about reasoning through unfamiliar prompts.

I ended up getting the offer. What I appreciated most was that the recruiter kept things moving
