Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Ontario Power Generation.
Computer Programmer
It went alright, not many technical questions about projects other than clarification, but mostly behavioral. Two people interviewed me on video. Nothing about grades or past experience, though some behavioral questions referred to those.
- Tell me about your previous projects and provide more details.
Software Engineer Intern
I spoke with two people for my interview, and they were both really nice and professional. They asked seven behavioral questions, and sometimes they'd ask follow-up questions based on what I said. They really want you to use the STAR method, so if you're not familiar with it, you should definitely practice before your interview.
- Can you describe a situation where you had to work with a challenging team member?
- Tell me about a time you made a process better.
- Have you ever started something but didn't finish it? Tell me about that.
Software Developer
The whole thing took about two months from applying to getting a response, and then things moved pretty fast. I had an interview that was about an hour long with the manager I'd be reporting to. They had a form they were filling out during our chat. Lots of behavioral questions, some of which were pretty challenging. They asked things like 'What are your strengths and weaknesses?', 'What's the hardest bug you've ever fixed?', and 'How would you approach solving this particular problem?'.
- Can you tell me about your resume?
- What are your strengths?
- What are your weaknesses?
