I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deel in Sep 2024
Interview
Stage 1 - Recruiter Screening
Stage 2 - Take home assignment where you need to implement some endpoints
3. Technical interview - There we two interviewers who looked very demoralized, guess they're not paid :( they joined the meeting late, asked stupid questions and from the beginning; I knew this is not the kind of team to work in considering one of the interviewers was the team leader of the team I was to join.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The focussed so much on data modelling, things like normalization, data integrity and database optimization.
The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Deel (Toronto, ON)
Interview
It was a 1.5-hour conversation. Everything felt pretty easy until we went deeper into some SQL topics. Overall, the offer felt quite low it seems like they’re aiming for cheaper labor.
I just met with HR. The lady was not friendly, that's why I felt a bit stressed. The job interview was not conducted professionally. The person I spoke to wasn't knowledgeable enough.
Interview with this Talent Lead, excellent process tho.
Code challenge build something simple and prove your skills
Technical interview wasn’t what I expected. Asked more about concurrency and query optimization strategies, and event driven
