I applied through other source. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at ecobee (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2019
Interview
Interview was re-scheduled multiple times over a period of 3-4 months.
Everytime they would ask to schedule the interview and then just not respond.
Finally they called me up again and this time with a concrete date.
Questions are related to background really.
Did not seem exciting role and I decided not to pursue further.
