I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Hatch (Mississauga, ON)
Interview
Very easy and relaxed for junior engineers/new grads/EITs.
Mostly a casual conversation about interests, co-op experiences, career goals, etc.
Usually with two or three senior engineers at the company, from your own discipline.
It wasn't very technical because they assume you are a clean slate and know nothing about engineering design, since most schools don't focus on engineering deliverables.

I applied through university. I interviewed at Hatch (Mississauga, ON) in Feb 2020
Interview
Overall very clear interview process. Online screening answering generic questions. One in person interview lasting around one hour with various team members. More focused on soft-skills then technical questions. Asked primarily on education and previous experience. Focus on how your past experiences can be applied to the job.
