The interview process consisted of 4 rounds, and communication during the interviews themselves was generally good. However, the biggest issue was the extremely long wait time for a final decision. It took nearly 3 weeks to receive an update, even though the entire interview process was completed within about a week.
What was frustrating was the lack of transparency around the timeline. It would have been much better if candidates were informed upfront that decisions could take 3–4 weeks. As a smaller startup, I expected a faster and more efficient hiring process.
Another disappointing aspect was that the role was presented as hiring within Canada, but it ultimately felt like the company preferred hiring from the U.S., which made the process feel like a waste of time for Canadian candidates.
Overall, the experience left me disappointed, and I would hesitate to apply to this company again.

The interview process included both technical interviews and behavioural questions, with topics focused on areas like cross-functional collaboration, teamwork, and communication.
Is was a pretty good experience overall with the process. The process started with an initial screening with a recruiter, then a behavioral interview with an engineering manager, followed by a technical interview with a panel of engineers.

Colloquio
The interview process consisted of four rounds:
An initial screening with HR
A conversation with the hiring manager
A team interview
A final meeting with the branch president
Everyone I spoke with was generally polite and professional. However, the process felt unstructured and overly lengthy, with several questions repeated across multiple interviews. There didn’t seem to be a cohesive plan guiding the progression.
After the interviews, I received an offer—but was surprised to find a newly introduced travel requirement of over 10%, despite the role being clearly advertised as "Remote." Travel was never mentioned during any part of the interview process. While exceptional in-person meetings might be understandable, 5–6 weeks of travel annually felt excessive given the original job description. We ultimately agreed to part ways.
The background check and reference process was quite invasive and inconsistent. Different HR representatives gave conflicting instructions on the types of references required. They also used a third-party service, Checkr, for background screening—a service that has had accuracy issues in the past.
Overall, I would advise potential candidates to be cautious and ask detailed questions upfront. The experience raised several red flags that became clear only late in the process.
