      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Slalom Build (San Francisco, CA) in May 2021

      Basic questions any data engineer will know. It was a very fast process, less than a week. 1 non-technical phone screen, 1 take coding take home, and 1 phone screen with the hiring manager.

      Data Engineer Interview

      6 Dec 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Toronto, ON
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Slalom Build (Toronto, ON) in Nov 2021

      Interview

      First round screening with HR followed by an hour technical interview with a senior employee and final 2-3 hour interview both being technical/behavioural. HR informed me that the team wants to schedule a final interview but were not able to schedule for around 3 weeks with reasoning being the engineers are unavailable. After around 4 weeks, the HR representative was able to give me a timeslot for the final interview but less than 24 hours before the interview, they informed me that they had sent out all the offers they were planning on and cancelled my interview. From my end this seems like poor managing from the company/higher-ups and should at least conduct all the interviews prior to making decisions/offers. My advice to candidates is to schedule/demand interviews as early as possible as this company seems to operate as a first come first serve. Advice to the employers is to have decency to conduct all the interviews as candidates have to be involved in the process for weeks and it is very disappointing that your final interview gets cancelled with such short notice.
