I applied online. I interviewed at Alithya (Montreal, QC) in Sept 2023
Interview
30 mins phone call explaining the role and the company, followef by a technical test from the pits of hell. The hr guy did warn me that even senior people fail the test. So what’s the point of it?

Question 1
I was told it was gonna be mc questions but it wasnt. Big java algos to write, im talking 25 mins per problem
1- Online assessment on codingame. Very easy to easy difficulty, if you know maps and loops you are good to go.
2- Phone interview with a recruiter.
3- Interview with seniors at the company.
There has been a miscommunication between the recruiter and the technical interview conductors. I have never said that I know SPRING anywhere in my resume and said that I don't in the phone interview with the recruiter, but I was rejected by the technical interview conductors because I don't know the framework. Wasted my time for nothing.
