I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at BlackBerry (Waterloo, ON) in Apr 2009
Interview
First I got a phone call, made a phone interview appointment. Then several days later, I got the phone interview, it lasted about 30 minutes and just some basic questions, like background review. After about 1 or 2 weeks, I got an email and informed me to take an on site interview. It was a group interview, 4 people attended, one of them is the director of the branch. This interview took about 2 hours. After that, they asked me to take another on site interview, it was a 1:1 interview. The group leader interviewed me. It took about 1 and a half hour.
Straightforward and relevant to industry. There was one round when I interviewed as a product manager and I spoke with a director of product who asked about my experience and skills.
