I applied online. I interviewed at Haleon (Mississauga, ON)
Interview
First call was a phone screening, just the regular eligibility questions and getting to know you better then the second interview was composed of Behavioural Questions Followed by a technical interview (very brief).
Recruiter called to confirm interview details, followed by 1 round of interview with the hiring manager and an offer about 2 weeks later. Fast and efficient process overall but it took them a while to arrange the interview at the start which lead me to think they were not interested.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What's a time where you had to work with someone who had a different working style?
It was average, but job description was a bit misleading and role had to be clarified in the interview which made me realize it wasn't a good fit for me
The interview was more focused on behavioral and cultural fit than purely technical knowledge. I was asked how I approach complex problems, handle unexpected issues under time pressure, and communicate in a small, fast-paced engineering team. They were particularly interested in my ability to stay calm and methodical when debugging or optimizing under constraints.

Question 1
“How do you typically react when a system you’re responsible for fails unexpectedly under pressure?”
