Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Block (Toronto, ON) nel mese di set 2023
Colloquio
Casual recruiter screen, pair programming exercise, and onsite with 2 more pair programming exercises, architecture design, resume q&a, hiring manager screen.
Pair programming interviews were pretty easy, straight forward. More collaborative toy problems than typical gotcha-type problems.
However was later ghosted by the recruiter. Reached out to the hiring manager who said the opening was taken away. Would've appreciated if the recruiter responded...
