Richmond, BCPosted Mar 2012 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

The interview started with a one-hour HR meeting followed by a technical panel interview that lasted about an hour and a half with two team leads.

The HR conversation covered benefits, the security clearance requirements, and the assignment process—especially that a background check would run after the first week at work. They also asked a few typical HR-style prompts, like describing myself in three words.

The technical part focused on general algorithm questions. They had me first describe solutions and then code them, and there was also an example program where I had to identify errors. None of the questions felt especially hard.

The whole experience sounded pretty smooth and approachable, and I ended up receiving an offer.
