I applied online. I interviewed at ALS Global (North Vancouver, BC) in Aug 2025
Interview
2 rounds. One on phone with hr to know the background and a few general questions on preferred work shift hrs etc. Next round of interview in office with manager.
The interview process started with an online application, followed by a phone screening with HR to discuss my background and interest in the role. After that, I was invited for an in-person (or virtual) interview, which included both technical and behavioral questions.
