Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). O processo levou 3 dias. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa BMO Financial Group.
Entrevista
Phone screen involved being asked trivia questions about languages and some really useless puzzle question that told me more about them than they would learn about me. Phone interviewer was quite rude and didn't really know how to talk to communicate without patronizing people. On top of that the interviewer didn't really know what he was talking about and would interrupt me to try and correct something I said when there was nothing to correct.
1-1 interview involved waiting 20 minutes for the interviewer to show up, and then also sitting infront of them while they took a phone call for another 20 minutes. Overall I spent 70 minutes of my time at this stage just to speak to them for 30.
Don't waste your time with this company, they have no idea what they're doing.

Entrevista
1:1 team lead interview with resume review and how to implement basic class. You can only pass if you know what you are doing in my opinion. He will question your every decision and make sure you know why what you chose is a good / bad option. The interviewer is very nice though otherwise, making jokes during the interview. But you better know what you're doing.

First stage of the process was a one way interview. Mainly questions like "Why BMO?" or "Tell me about a project you did", and one situational question like "what would you do if you were part of 'x' team that is having this problem" etc. The second stage would have been a first-round interview with a recruiter or manager, and then a possible second round with team members.
