A good conversation with a talent discovery representative very polite and overall helpful. This was followed by a standard coding challenge after which by a few other different technical stages.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
My perspective on how industry a particular industry technology influences the cycle of developing a product from inception to production and what are ways to make sure the highest quality is delivered.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Canva (Sydney)
Interview
I was interviewed by a very junior recruiter for a mid level position. As per her LinkedIn profile she must have been less than two years experience and just moved here from an Asian country (no racism intended, so I mentioned continent and not country or race). She was trying to teach a person with close to 15 years experience how SQL works. Very disappointed. Am a big fan of Melanie and Chris for their contributions to tech and Australia. But it's become such a big organization and I am sure they don't realize or are aware of the blunders their employees are making in front of outsiders. Disappointed that I didn't even make it to the second round as I am a big fan of Melanie and Chris and because I have past FAANG experience. I generally am not a person who over estimates personal capabilities. I honestly wish the best for Canva and their contributions to Australian tech.
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Canva (Sydney) in Jul 2024
Interview
Leet code questions for assessment were really difficult. I got through this and went on to the virtual interview. They asked basic questions and I fumbled it. The question was about how to stop a DDOS attack.
