It was a simple process. First, there was a technical round, then a Manager Round, followed by an HR round. Salary discussions happen with the manager and HR team. The notice period is firm, and they expect you to join within 2 months. They gave a good package hike, so no more bargaining.

Behavioral Technical

Had two interviews, one with HR and one with an Engineer. The HR person asked mostly personality and standard interview questions. The engineer asked technical questions related to my resume. The interviews took place at the Aurora location on Edward Street for the UofT PEY program. Both interviewers were really nice.
