The interview process was smooth and well organized. The technical and HR interviewers were professional, knowledgeable, and approachable. The technical discussion focused on practical frontend development topics such as JavaScript, React, TypeScript, system design, performance optimization, and problem-solving. The HR round was transparent and covered the role, expectations, and overall hiring process.
One area that could be improved is the background verification (BGV) process. While the interview experience itself was positive, the BGV and post-interview communication took longer than expected, with limited updates during the waiting period. More proactive communication and a faster verification process would improve the overall candidate experience.
Overall, I had a good interview experience and found the interview process to be fair and technically relevant.

Interview
Recruiter submits your profile. There are 3 rounds, 1st is coding round in codesandbox.io where they will directly ask you to code sharing the screen. Its a 1 hour coding round. The company is not into legit hiring in Canada and had interviewed more than 20 candidates for this mid level React Dev position and yet selected nobody in this market. Sounds like they do not want to hire anyone in Canada and add an offshore position to save money. Everyone is Indian in this company. No diversity at all. The interviewer won't even turn his camera on.
