I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Fortinet (Ottawa, ON) in Sept 2022
Interview
Initial application step is to do leetcode. Needed to study leetcode first in order to solve the problem. If you don't learn it, you're gonna have a bad time. Not ideal for fresh grads

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Fortinet (Burnaby, BC) in Feb 2024
Interview
After submitting my application, in 5 minutes or so, I received an email with a HackerRank test link for an online test. It felt like that a bot just clicked a button to send the test to any applicants. After a while, I received another email from a Fortinet recruiter about the online test. To this point, everything was bot/AI driven.

Question 1
Total 14 Questions in 120 mins straightly from HackerRank. It's not much relevant to the job I applied if I'd say. It came with 10 mixed multi-choice Questions with typical cognitive Qs like from middle schools and some basic coding Qs, 4 coding problems. Most Qs were the same as already posted in other discussion boards. For example, one Q was about a father age with some information from son's age and father's life. Another was a physics speed and distance Q. The 4 coding Qs needed to read the API requirements, i.e. what the result format it needed?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fortinet (Burnaby, BC) in Mar 2014
Interview
The interview had two parts, written exam followed by an oral interview. The written exam was about 20 multiple choice questions and the rest were "many" coding questions (6 or 7 pages long). Then they asked about my resume, the project I am currently working on and the ones that I may like to work on in this company.
