J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Ciena (Ottawa, ON) en oct. 2014
Entretien
Received a call from recruiter, approximately a week after applying online on the website, to schedule a 30 min phone interview. Received a call next week from HR to schedule a trip to Ottawa for final round. The event was very well planned and people hosting were very nice. They even had Wii U and Nitendo for people to play in the waiting room! We got to meet other developers who recently joined and they gave presentations about Ciena and their experience working in the company. Each final round interview was about 45 minutes.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Phone interview was pre-screening and I was mostly asked behaviour questions and about past experiences. There were a couple of technical questions about C and operating systems, like what is the difference between real-time OS and general OS.
Second interview went quite the same way. We talked about previous projects. The interviewer tried to challenge by throwing many question on the projects we discussed. They were very heavy on process and documentation. Like what is the name of this document that you wrote? Then they asked to write a small code in C, to flip a string. They asked a few questions about operating systems, e.g. process/thread/synchronization.

Cancelled my rescheduled interview without any communication from HR. Got ghosted when asked for an explanation. 2 days later, I get a notification that the position is closed. Will never bother applying here again.
Good experience. Only 2 interviews; 1 for soft skills and 1 for technical skills. I ended up getting the job. Fairly easy interview. Good place to work. Why need many word, when few word do trick?
