I applied online. I interviewed at Isaac Operations (Toronto, ON)
Interview
Group interview onsite. They would call you out one by one during group activities for individual interview. The whole process felt like a MICRO AGRESSION to me. I'm a visible minority, prior to the interview I noticed they have few minority employees. Walked into the premises, it validated my thoughts. ALL other candidates were minorities and all interviewers were white. During individual interview they asked me: where are you ORIGINALLY from? then followed with When did you come to Canada? It seems their emphasis was on choosing someone who could strongly represent certain minority groups, but thinks and speaks like a native. The candidate that barely talked in the group interview moved forward to the next step. The whole process made me feel uncomfortable.

Interview
Ghosted after virtual interview (2nd round). Do not apply to this company, they don't have the basic decency of replying to multiple emails just to confirm the status of the application. They only pick people from 1 specific university.
I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Isaac Operations in Nov 2023
Interview
The selection day goes something like this:
1. A 3-minute presentation on any topic of our choice
2. First teach session
3. Group activity
4. Behavioural interview
5. Second teach session
6. Case study prep
7. Case study interview
8. A 25 minute data analysis test
If a candidate passes selection day, they have to clear another round of case interviews.
On the whole, an etremely lengthy and unecessarily rigorous interview process.
Also, totally unrelated to the interview process but the team did not seem very racially diverse.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. What is your weakness?
2. What is something that you think ONLY you can understand very well but might be difficult for others?
