I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Plusgrade (Montreal, QC) in Sept 2024
Interview
I was interviewed by the Engineering Manager, Monti, and a developer named Ohad. Both were approachable and created an encouraging atmosphere, making me feel they were invested in my success. They were transparent about the challenges I might face if accepted. The first task was assigned offline, which instilled a sense of trust and helped alleviate some pressure. The second interview was conducted online, where I found it difficult to articulate my thoughts due to nerves. While the test seemed fair, I found myself panicking during the process.
