I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Appara (Vancouver, BC)
Interview
First round is a quick phone interview; don't be fooled, it's not just a behavioral. It starts off with the interviewer telling you about the company, and what they're looking for. First, the interviewer speeds through this and jumps into quick behavioral questions, mostly talking about yourself and your software development journey. After this, you enter a speedy technical challenge about OOP principles. Most of it is university level OOP terms you learn in your first year, I would recommend touching up on these as its not really something you'd remember working in the field, more of a school knowledge. After the technical questions, you get a chance to ask a couple questions of your own
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself and walk me through your programming journey (start from when you wrote your first code)
What is inheritance? What is an abstract class? What happens if you add static to an int myVariable? What is a thread? What is a primary key in a database?

Interview
I had 3 different interviews/ calls:
1. Phone call screening from the hiring Manager. Be ready for some form of technical questions here (just basic OOP questions)
2. Technical interviews with 2 Engineers from the team. Add features to an app.
3. Technical interviews with 2 more Engineers, add some more features to app.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The Technical Interviews were general OOP questions, not your typical leetcode. Add some more features to a java app. Have a good understanding of classes and inheritance.
