I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Ledn (Toronto, ON) in Jan 2026
Interview
The interview process was well-structured and professionally conducted.
It started with an HR screening, followed by a take-home assignment focused architectural decisions and code quality. The assignment was realistic and aligned with real-world engineering challenges.
After submitting the assignment, I had a technical interview with senior engineers to walk through my implementation and discuss architectural decisions and trade-offs. This stage was fair, detailed, and technically solid.
Next, there was a conversation with the CTO, which focused on company vision, AI adoption, and how engineering fits into the broader product strategy. It was an open and engaging discussion.
The final step was a Social Interview with the Engineering Manager and several developers. While this stage is described as a social conversation, it places strong emphasis on communication style, participation in discussions, and how candidates express their perspectives in collaborative settings.
One suggestion would be to consider evaluating cultural fit earlier in the process, as reaching the final stage requires a significant time investment from candidates

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ledn (Vancouver, BC) in Sep 2022
Interview
Had a quick call with a recruiter to talk about the position and my resume. She was friendly and easy to talk to, and answered my questions about Ledn. The interview process requires a take home project that she said will take about 8 hours before moving on to an interview. I don't have time for that right now so didn't move forward.
