I applied online. I interviewed at Dexcent (Calgary, AB) in Feb 2026
Interview
I recently interviewed with Dexcent and wanted to share my experience.
The positive:
The interview process was very well organized. Everyone I met – from HR to the Team Lead and even the CEO – was genuinely friendly and welcoming. They created a comfortable atmosphere, which made it easy to be open and honest about my background.
The interview questions:
They asked role‑specific questions directly based on my resume, such as:
“Where have you used a virtual machine (VM)?”
“What do you know about firewalls?”
“Tell me about your project work.”
These were fair, technical questions that showed they had read my resume carefully.
Why I wasn’t selected 'my own reflection':
At this stage, my experience is mostly academic and project‑based, with limited hands‑on industry work. Dexcent was looking for someone with more practical, on‑the‑job experience, and I respect that. They were transparent and professional throughout.
It's usually 1 stage interview where you would be tested on technical and business acumen to see if you can translate technical capability to business value. It usually online Interview by the hiring manager
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Dexcent in Sep 2024
Interview
Interview started well with the HR and they transferred me to the Hiring Manager. They made me comfortable as i was nervous initially. Overall, it went good and am waiting for the reply
