The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CGI (Knoxville, TN)
Interview
Initial phone screen, virtual tech/hr interview with three established developers, and then an offer. Interview was super laid back but comprehensive. Consisted of open ended questions about experience and education, then they dove deeper into each one depending on the responses until I had said all I knew. No leetcode style questions.
Super quick turnaround. Just 8 days between initial contact and verbal offer.

Question 1
What is the difference between a language like Java and a language like C?
No behavioural question, just one live technical assignment on call. Asked to code something. After I was done, we discussed the work and my code. No other question was asked.
The interview process was straightforward and went well overall. It consisted of about four interview rounds, with each stage focusing on different skills, experience, and overall fit for the role. I did have a recruiter.
