CanadaPosted Sep 2020 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went partway through interviews with nice people, but the experience ended negatively due to timing and process issues.

Recruiter coordination — I was in contact with recruiters and scheduled interviews.
Technical code review — One technical round involved a code review process.
Behavioral questioning — Other rounds were mostly behavioral.
Cancellation / filled position — In one case, the position was filled and my interview was canceled shortly before it happened; in another, the position was canceled after several interviews. Outcome: I didn’t get selected; the takeaway is that last-minute cancellations made the process feel unreliable despite friendly interviewers.
