It was alright. They did not give us a lot of time to prepare. I would read the job description. Otherwise, easy questions. You can find them on Glassdoor. The interviewer was also nice.

So there were 4 rounds total. The first was an aptitude test, then a technical interview. After that, there was a partner round, and finally, the last round was supposed to be HR, but because of time constraints, it turned into a group discussion. The technical interview was pretty easy, mostly questions about my resume. The partner round, honestly, felt like a bit of luck – you never know what they're looking for, could be deep technical stuff or just HR questions. The HR/group discussion part was very easy.

Behavioral Technical

Got the job details from a recruiter. Talked to them about the role, and they set up an interview for the next week. My first interview was a phone call from Calgary, focusing on my experience and some technical questions. The week after, I had a second phone interview with someone from PWC Toronto who asked about new technologies in the field. Afterward, the recruiter mentioned they were interested, but it depended on the project.
