      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Sonatype (Toronto, ON) in Mar 2019

      Interview

      Sleepy, scruffy interviewers over web cam. After 7 interviews they ghosted and stopped responding to emails. They sweetly promised feedback at the onset but they will drop you like a sack. Just avoid this company unless you have contributed heavily to open source software.
