J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Lightspeed (Victoria, BC) en avr. 2022
Entretien
The recruiter(s) and interviewers were extremely friendly, accommodating and well prepared to conduct a great process.
1. Conversation with technical recruiter, discussed the role and the company and the next steps going forth.
2. Interview with hiring manager discussing behavioural questions and getting to know the company and myself. He was extremely friendly, and helpful during this process.
3. Technical interview. I prepared a 'tutorial' on a technical topic of my choice. Followed by a debugging/coding session through codepen. The interviewer was very accommodating and helped lessen the pressure of this section. He answered more in-depth questions about the role and the team.
4. A interview feedback with the recruiter to discuss the process and I was offered the role during this step.

The process starts with an initial HR screening call followed by an interview with the hiring manager.
The hiring manager was late and seemed completely unprepared. He asked almost nothing about my resume or my iOS experience, so I had very little chance to showcase what I actually do.
Much of the interview focused on repetitive situational questions. He kept rewording the same question over and over, even though I had already answered it.
Clearly, he did not have enough material to fill the full hour. After about 30 minutes into the 1-hour interview, he just opened it up for me to ask questions.
The impression I got was that iOS development is clearly an afterthought at this company. That aligns with the low reviews and ratings across their apps.
I have done a lot of interviews, and this is the first time I actually felt frustrated enough to write a review.

Situational questions. Also, asked me what makes a good CI/CD pipeline, and how I'm using AI at work.
very friendly recruitment staff. They made the interview process very personable and enjoyable. 1 recruiter call, then take home assignment on swift, then explaining the take-home assessment, then behavioural interview.
