I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Workleap (Montreal, QC) in Nov 2020
Interview
The interview first started with a call with HR. Then they will send you a test to do at home which is basically to implement an API and perform actions in any preferred languages.
Then finally a design phase with the team where you just try to solve a problem with there "help".
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How to ameliorate the development process of a given system ?
HR call; video interview with hiring manager with engineering background
take-home assignment; tech review to go over the take-home assignment. it is unclear what they are looking for from the take-home assignment. It took quite some time to finish but what they cared about seemed very odd.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Workleap (Montreal, QC) in Jul 2020
Interview
- Phone screen with HR: explained the team and the product and ask questions related to my salary expectation.
- Video chat with manager of the team and a colleague: some culture fit question and some light technical questions related to previous projects. Interviewers seems not excited to meet me and they seemed distracted when not addressed directly.
- There is normally a take-home coding challenge. After 3 weeks without any update from the recruitment team, I had to send 3 request (2 email + 1 using my referral) before receiving a rejection from them due to my salary expectation it seems. I don't recommend this experience to anyone.
The whole process took about 4-5 weeks including the delays.
