I applied online. I interviewed at Okta (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2025
Interview
1. Apply through LinkedIn.
2. Recruiter email to have a recruiter screen.
3. Technical screen.
4. Virtual onsite but hiring manager screen first and then 3 technical rounds ( 1 system design, 1 coding and 1 API design round).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The hiring manager did not have a clue what to do with me as he did not know that the technical interviews are after his interview. And also it showed he did not wait until my interviews got finished at the end of the week to make a decision and decision was made even before my technical interviews got finished. It seemed like they did not know what to do with my case or situation. Overall, the organization of interviews was very unprofessional to say the least.
The lack of communication from the recruiter was appalling. I needed to follow up 3 times to get any sort of communication from them.

Interview
Applied through company site and earned a first round call with a recruiter. Easy call, nothing out of the ordinary. Call took about 20 min. Recruiter shared basic information regarding the role.
It's good, but too many expectations.
too many interview rounds.
Salary was good, workstation was good.
if you need a developer, so it's only good in development, not in production.
everyone have thire own specification.
