I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Stoko (Vancouver, BC) in Oct 2018
Interview
Overall it was a good experience. The interviewers were personable and although I was nervous, made me feel welcome. There was a balance of personal and technical questions. The technical questions seemed focused on my thought process and how I approached a problem rather than simply crunching numbers and theory which I liked. I was given time to think and encouraged to "think out loud" as I worked through the various stages of their problems. I felt it really gave me an opportunity to show what I could do and have a conversation with them as I did.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They gave me a whiteboard marker pen cap and asked me a number of questions about it: "how do you think this is made?", "If you had to make 10 of them how would you do it?", "If you had to make 10,000 how would you do it?", "are there any indications on the part of how this specific one was made?", etc.
