      Software Engineering Manager Interview

      Nov 26, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Sydney
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Canva (Sydney) in Nov 2022

      Interview

      The interview process was a screening call with a recruiter followed by a 2-hour remote technical interview (and then leadership interviews). Distributed web technology is a bit of a stretch area for me, but both technical interviewers were very patient and kind. They found out what I knew (and didn't know) without it being a grilling. And later, I got a phone call from the Canva recruiter explaining why I'd not been successful and encouraging me to apply again in future as several of their current managers were not successful on the first attempt.

      Question 1

      The questions were general web tech stuff (one coding and another a system design). There wasn't anything from left field

      Software Engineering Manager Interview

      May 20, 2026
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Canva

      Interview

      Canva’s interview process had seven rounds, including TA screening. Scheduling was very fast, with options for back-to-back technical rounds. The System Design and AI-assisted coding interviews were difficult and required strong preparation beforehand. AI Coding round was bit difficult, and felt like engineer at other end was being impatience and interrupting alot.

      Question 1

      Design a system that renders elements and page can be exported in various format.
