Candidatei-me online. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa LiveCA (Toronto, ON).
Entrevista
This was a few years ago, but honestly the experience was so strange I feel like it is worth mentioning.
They had me do a 3 day paid working trial, and during that time, the energy was very strange. I was essentially told that the only way to be successful was to schedule a meeting with everyone on the team to introduce myself (okay), but then seemingly people went out of their way to dodge me. This was treated as a "gotcha".
At one point, I made a small error in referring to a time zone and an employee told me about how others were gossiping about this mistake behind my back.
At another point, I was asked to shadow what would be my supervisor and she got on a call with another administrator and started asking demanding questions to her about her tasking (I felt like I was sitting and watching a disciplinary conversation). Wildly unprofessional to have a perfect stranger sit in on this.
In the end, they didn't hire me (I later learned they hired a relative of one of the leaders instead). Instead of sending me an email or giving me a quick phone call to let me know I was unsuccessful, they required me to book out another hour of my workday so they could do it by video. Overall, it was a very weird "prove yourself to us" experience while witnessing a lot of unprofessional behaviour.

It was comprehensive but very transparent and was a positive experience. Did a first round with HR manager, second round with 2 execs plus a take-home assignment they gave 48 hours to complete. The assignment was lengthy but of reasonable difficulty. They did take quite a long time to review internally after that but did not ghost me which was pleasantly surprising since so many other companies these days just ghost and you never hear back.

Had an interview with HR and did an assessment where you’re given 48 hours to do and then you get feedback and their decision on whether you are receiving and offer or not.
