CanadaPosted Feb 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My interview started immediately with technical content, and it felt difficult from the very beginning.

They opened with intro questions about data structures and then moved quickly into harder conceptual questions.

I was in the full session for about an hour. The tone felt very technical and focused on fundamentals and deeper understanding rather than anything casual.

I didn’t get an offer. Looking back, the biggest thing I’d say is that I felt the difficulty ramped faster than I expected, and it became clear they were testing more than surface-level knowledge.
