      Software Developer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Montreal, QC
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zendesk (Montreal, QC) in Sept 2023

      Interview

      Mostly straightforward. I had a call with HR, followed by a technical interview. I unfortunately didn’t finish as my interviewers left after 1 hour even though we were scheduled for 90 minutes. I had a systems design interview the next day.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Zendesk (Tallinn) in Jan 2026

      Interview

      First interview was with HR rep, second one with a technical team lead. There was supposedly a third interview with another technical manager or something, but it seemed they had already a strong candidate in mind, so after second interview I immediately got an email that they had gone the other way.
