I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Lightspeed (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2022
Interview
The interview was the best and most enjoyable interview process I’ve ever had. It started with and phone interview with HR then a Zoom interview with the hiring manager and then a technical interview with the team and closed by a behavioral interview with the product manager and designer. Everyone was professional, friendly and made the process so much enjoyable that I knew this was my top choice.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Lightspeed (Toronto, ON) in Sep 2022
Interview
The interview process was simple. A couple of questions around wide variety of topic in like 15-20 minutes. Basic question on front end. Then question about comparing different frameworks. They were looking for someone with mentorship skill and didn't quite asked question in that area. Rejected saying "current Calibre" is not matching what they are expecting to hire. Thank god! they didn't hire. as the interview seem pretty unreasonable

Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to provide this review. We’re sorry to hear your experience was not 100% positive, as candidate experience is important to us.
We try to give everyone personal feedback, but sometimes due to the number of applications and interviews we miss the ball. Apologies for that. We are a growing company and mistakes sometimes happen. Your feedback is valuable and helps us improve.
Thank you!

Interview
Poor follow up by the recruiters like others have mentioned. Was ghosted after the final round of interviews even after following up multiple times.
- HR screen
- Second round : Technical discussion with manager and past team fit
- Third round : panel of 3 interviewers. Past work experience, design and code review.
Was an easy interview. Would definitely decline considering the poor response/ feedback. It shows how much they value the hiring process.
