Interviewing at Canva was a rollercoaster of emotions, to say the least. The process started with an application that felt like it was stuck in a time warp. It took ages to proceed, leaving me wondering if my application had vanished into the digital abyss.
After what seemed like an eternity, I finally heard back from a recruiter. However, any excitement I had quickly dissipated when I realized the recruiter's demeanor was less than welcoming. Their attitude bordered on rudeness, leaving me feeling uneasy throughout the conversation.
Despite the less than stellar experience with the recruiter, I tried to remain optimistic and followed up with a thank-you email. Unfortunately, my efforts were met with silence. No response, no acknowledgment, nothing.
Overall, my interview experience at Canva left much to be desired. While the company's reputation precedes itself in terms of its innovative platform and culture, the same cannot be said for its hiring process, which left me feeling undervalued and overlooked.
