Anonymous Interview Candidate in Vancouver, BC
I applied online. I interviewed at Pleasant Solutions (Vancouver, BC)
Underwent 2 rounds of 3-5 hour questionnaire. On the 2nd round and they said they will provide a 50$ voucher for our troubles but it's been two weeks and no voucher was given neither feedback on the status of the application. Sent follow-up emails and no replies. That speaks of the company's culture. Stay away. Their interview process is a waste of time and energy.

not worth the time. Long process but you never even speak to a person and they make false promises. Wouldn't recommend to anyone because I can't imagine a company that lies in the interview process would be a great place to work.

There was a coding assessment sent that contained a variety of simple coding questions as well as soft skill questions. Then, there was a second coding assessment that took a very long time containing algorithm questions that were difficult on their terrible website with incorrect grammar. There was also the promise of a 50$ best buy gift card but I followed up with the company about the status of the application and never heard back from them.

Convoluted, time consuming. Very long interview, then had to complete a number of personality and other tests afterwards. Despite that effort, they told me they wouldn't even call if they didn't decide to hire me.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Pleasant Solutions (Edmonton, AB) in Jul 2020
By far one of the worst interviews ever. They give you an online quiz that takes upwards of 6! hours. Promised a $50 gift card, which was never received. HR doesn't treat you like a person, often deflecting questions and will not offer any solutions. The entire website that they host for the quiz is buggy, and they simply ask you to reapply (the entire 3 month process!) because their own site doesn't work well!
