I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Veeva Systems (Pleasanton, CA) in Feb 2024
Interview
Straightforward and pleasant, people were nice and I got to speak to members of the org that I joined so I was talking to future coworkers. Got asked to show work that I did at a previous web company so you may want to be ready for that kind of thing.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Relatively simple graph problem where you have companies that own stock and need to calculate the amount of stock of a given company that's owned. So long as you're comfortable with Java and DSA stuff it isn't too bad.
The process began with a first-round personality and behavioral interview. The interviewer focused on my background, communication style, work preferences, and how I approach teamwork and problem solving. After that round, I received a rejection and did not move forward.
Applied through university job board. HR round was brief - asked about career aspirations and which team I'd want to join. Never heard back from them after the first round.

Interview
Applied for a Canadian role. Was interviewed by a US-based recruiter who does not understand Canadian employment law. I hold an open work permit (which requires zero employer sponsorship or cost), but the recruiter explicitly rejected me on the call, stating they 'only hire Citizens or PRs to avoid sponsorship.'
