      Junior Software Engineer Interview

      Mar 8, 2012
      Anonymous employee
      Richmond, BC
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at MDA (Richmond, BC) in Aug 2010

      Interview

      The interview consisted of a 1-hour interview with a HR representative followed by a 1.5 hour technical panal interview by two team leads. The HR interview mostly consisted of explaining the benefits that MDA offers, the security clearance requirements (a background check will be run after first week at work), and the assignment (contract) employee process. There were a couple of 'HR-style' interview questions as well, e.g. "describe yourself in three words". The technical interview consisted of some general algorithm questions that were first asked to be described and then coded. There was also an example program where one had to find all the errors. None of the questions were that hard.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Write a function that reverses the order of words in a sentence.

      I applied online. I interviewed at MDA in Jan 2026

      First step was a 15-min call with a person who seemed to be in HR. Asked about whether I'm eligible to work in the country, whether I'm ok with the location and format of work, discussed starting salaries. Got an invite to an hour-long video interview with the engineering team.
