I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Global Relay (Vancouver, BC) in Jan 2021
Interview
My interview process included an intro HR call, followed by two technical rounds assessing frontend principles, and then I received an offer. It was a structured and efficient hiring process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How does JavaScript handle concurrency with its single-threaded event loop, and in what scenarios might you run into thread-blocking issues in a frontend application?
1st & 2nd interview that check the basics are good and professional 1 on 1 meetings.
3rd step (maybe it was 1 or 2 hours) technical interview with 3 heads of teams, shooting questions at you.
Then with this great experience & (irritation) & all of them looking at your screen, you are expected to solve a programming question.
There you conclude that you don't actualy want to work with neither of the three.
They didnt cooperate with me to succeed at all. They showed me that they will throw me under the bus at the first given moment. So I didn't even make the slightest effort to solve the given task.
So thank you for not hiring me. I don't want to be a slave with you
Was told no technical interview but gave me a surprise technical test in the interview. Also the manager interviewing seemed very arrogant. Most people I met at the company were nice and they have a very nice office.

Question 1
Is there anything you would like to tell us that we might not know about you?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Global Relay (Halifax, NS) in Sept 2024
Interview
3 basic programming questions (2 leetcode easy, 1 arguably medium but could also be considered easy), behavioral questions and digging deep into prior experience related to Java from what was given on the personal resume

Question 1
Explain your solutions to the 3 programming problems from the Online Assessment (simple for loop question, trick was to start the counter at 1 instead of 0 I think)
