      Software Developer Co-Op Interview

      8 Dec 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Vancouver, BC
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Improving (Vancouver, BC) in Nov 2022

      Interview

      1 hr interview with 2 other devs. Despite listing other languages in the job posting, they're looking for a Java or C++ developer. I was given the option of choosing any language to solve the coding question. Interviewers were friendly.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Java trivia and 1 easy LC style question. Write a function that takes a String and returns the number of characters in the longest matched set of(), [], or {}. For example, the String “(1[234)567]” would return 9, and the String “()” would return 2.

      Thanks for reviewing our Co-Op interview, we’re glad you found it a positive experience! It can be challenging to really connect with candidates given we have to go through the university’s co-op posting platforms rather than via a human being, so we try our best to provide information in various mediums (blogs, videos, etc.) to help you get a taste of what it’s like before the interview. We cherish our co-op team members very much and give them the opportunity to own a project from beginning to end, work directly on billable projects, get experience with world class companies, while under the mentoring of more senior staff. Also many of our co-ops have gone on to do multiple sessions with us and later become permanent team members when they graduate so we’re big proponents of the program that gives students a chance to get a taste of what they can look forward to while also giving us a chance to live out our culture of growth and openness for all. -Improving Vancouver team
