I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at SimplyCast (Halifax, NS) in Dec 2016
Interview
The process took one week, had interview with CEO, Technical manager and HR person. The experience was the best I have ever had, you can tell they care about their employees and they give advice during the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell us how you handled a very challenging technical problem
I applied through university. I interviewed at SimplyCast
Interview
The interview focused mainly on my old jobs, and it would gradually move towards how much I got paid. The CEO was pretty interested in what my university co-op list was and how many places I had applied too.
The interviewer (also the CEO) told me that I was not they type of person to be a PHP developer and should switch careers. The whole interview experience felt rude and condescending. I dodged a bullet with this one. This company should not be on the co-op list at any university. The whole interview experience felt very sketchy.
