Question 1
How have you shown you are a product thinking engineer?
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at BMO Financial Group (New York, NY) in Oct 2025
Interview
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.
