Initial HR call, then a hackerrank test followed by a couple more rounds. I only made it up to the hackerrank test, which was 3 hours and consisted of about 4 medium Leetcode problems and 1 easy one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Make sure you understand IPv4/IPv6 for hackerank. I got hung up trying to understand the IPv6 specification from the hackerrank test.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fortinet (Burnaby, BC) in Oct 2023
Interview
4 Hackerrank Questions with test cases (you should debug to make it function correctly) + knowledge questions about C and your background. No talking for the first 2hr when you do the Hackerrank questions
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Fortinet (Burnaby, BC) in Feb 2024
Interview
After submitting my application, in 5 minutes or so, I received an email with a HackerRank test link for an online test. It felt like that a bot just clicked a button to send the test to any applicants. After a while, I received another email from a Fortinet recruiter about the online test. To this point, everything was bot/AI driven.

Question 1
Total 14 Questions in 120 mins straightly from HackerRank. It's not much relevant to the job I applied if I'd say. It came with 10 mixed multi-choice Questions with typical cognitive Qs like from middle schools and some basic coding Qs, 4 coding problems. Most Qs were the same as already posted in other discussion boards. For example, one Q was about a father age with some information from son's age and father's life. Another was a physics speed and distance Q. The 4 coding Qs needed to read the API requirements, i.e. what the result format it needed?
