Interview
I got referral from my friend. I attended interview of CGI and they asked first coding question and i written but they was not satisfy from this. They goes deep of the problem and we need to explain well. At last they asked sql question query. Finally not shortlisted for further round that's all.
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CGI (Toronto, ON) in Mar 2022
Interview
**WORST INTERVIEW EVER**
Contacted by an HR person to set up an interview for the technical round. We set up a day & time and it was supposed to be taken by 2 people from their team. During the 1st round, only one person was able to attend. After the interview, I was asked to appear for the 2nd round of an interview with the other person who couldn't make it in the first round. I waited for 15 mins and he didn't show up the next day morning he asked me to book an interview the same day. We met and the interviewer was very egoistic and also asked me to use the code editor on my computer as there was no environment set up on his end. I answered almost all the questions and I thought the interview was good. Then he asked me to develop a small project and I was also able to submit it within a couple of days. Then there was another round of an interview to explain the code and it went quite well.
Worst Part: I then received a call from another HR person whom I don't know and he said we are going to give you an offer for this position and it's a verbal confirmation from their end. I was very excited when I heard that and he also promised to send an offer letter in a couple of days. I waited for a week and I followed up but nothing. I waited another week and followed up but nothing. Even after the third week, there is nothing. I was tired of following up so I gave up.
They don't care to either say yes or no to the application.
For HR team of CGI: If you are reading this please ask your HR people to not play with somebody else's time and feelings.
Best Part: I enjoyed doing a small project.
