I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Wealthsimple in Mar 2021
Interview
Interviews were long and drawn out with little communication from the hiring team throughout. I ended up joining the team but definitely felt that the interview process could be improved to better respect candidate time.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wealthsimple (Toronto, ON) in May 2022
Interview
1 interview with HR (30 minutes; general questions), 1 interview with a manager (more in depth experience, fit with the role, etc.), 1 case interview with 2 team leads (present the take home case and more questions about fit)
Great interview process and was updated along the whole process. There were a few rounds of interviews along with a take-home assignment. Overall, standard interview process and enjoyed interviewing with the company.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Wealthsimple (Toronto, ON)
Interview
Overall a very standard interview process. First was a phone interview with the recruiter, who asked very standard questions (why Wealthsimple, salary expectations etc.). Next was an interview with an associate and team lead, and final round was with a senior associate and manager.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Overall, your standard interview questions, nothing too crazy or unexpected.
1. Tell me about yourself
2. Tell me about a time where you had to use data to improve a process.
3. Tell me about a time you had to lead a project/initiative
There was also a mini-case question where they gave you a situation and you had to talk about how you would approach the problem and solve it.
