      1 phone screen, then on-site: 2 pair programming algorithmic question rounds, 1 culture round, 1 architecture round. The interviews went well and they hinted they really liked me but the next day they asked for my compensation expectations, they said its too high but will get back to me. Next email they said I was not a good "fit". The company seemed good though.

      Java Software Engineer Interview

      2 May 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Toronto, ON
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wealthsimple (Toronto, ON) in May 2017

      Interview

      Process: HR phone screen, followed by phone interview on CoderPad and 4 onsite technical/behavioral interviews. HR was not proactive and only responded when I sent them emails. It was weird. Should be the other way around. For the first interview, I was scheduled to talk to a Java engineer but got paired up with a Ruby developer with little or no knowledge of Java. I employed TDD to partially solve the problem since time was limited. The interviewer sounded content with the approach. On site interviews were similar where I was interviewed by non Java developers but they went well regardless. They weren't too concerned about TDD and wanted to arrive at a solution instead (hint hint). But overall I was satisfied with my performance. Week later I got a call from HR saying that the team enjoyed speaking with me and were impressed by my skill set but they have reached their capacity for open positions and would stay in touch. They wasted my time with a job that was not even real. They were not sure where I would be placed if I were hired. I was given remarks like "your are smarter than most people who work here" during the interviews. I mean, makeup your mind what you want to do with the candidate. Waste people time and you will earn a bad reputation.
