      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at BlackBerry (Waterloo, ON) in Sept 2016

      Interview

      I applied through Blackberry career portal and got a call for the Software Test Specialist position. There was one interview on the phone. The interview was a conference call with the manager. It was a 30-minute long interview and was primarily about testing , they also asked me about the projects I had done.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BlackBerry (Ottawa, ON) in Nov 2021

      Interview

      Whole process took 1 month. First round I was interviewed by 3 people, asking questions about the technology I've worked on, basic questions about embedded programming and OS. They then sent me a technical assignment, scripting with python and multi threaded programming with C and some more questions about RTOS and embedded. A week after I interviewed with a panel, 7 people, asking me about my embedded projects and previous work at BlackBerry and general background questions. Finally there was a behavioural 3rd round with an HR person, discussing behavioural questions and a chance to negotiate salary and offer. After that, background check and offer. Overall the recruitment team had really good engagement and kept me in the loop the whole time.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What is a Hypervisor? What's microkernel vs monolithic kernel?
