Application
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ada (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2021
Interview
I applied at end of January. A recruiter reached out to me about a week and half later and introduced me to the company. He then set me up with an engineer at the company for an interview. There was no technical interview. I interviewed with 2 different teams and they asked about my experience and such. The whole process took about a month and half, would have been shorter but there was a mix up with one of the teams. The process was extremely smooth; the best interview process I have had yet. My recruiter, Tristan, was very transparent about what was happening. Unlike most other applications, I was not anxious about the process. Everything was well explained.
Had an initial call with a technical recruiter where we discussed the company and my interests. Met with the team I'd be working for the next day for a technical interview (~30 minutes). Was given an offer by the end of the day and provided with the contract the day after. Most organized and efficient process I've ever seen at a company - couldn't be more impressed
