I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PagerDuty in Sep 2014
Interview
Applied online, heard back from a recruiter almost immediately. Talked with hiring manager, followed by a coding test. Another phone screen on algorithms. Got called for onsite. Day full of interviews on various topics, including another coding test. Pretty thorough. Recruiters were quick and responsive. Took a while to schedule the on-site. However, once the process starts to move, it moves pretty quickly.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A coding question. Not difficult, but with the time constraint, becomes tough.
Initial hr call, a hiring manager call and then two technicals, a lot of behavioral questions . Unironically had a great time interviewing, which cannot be said for most companies these days.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PagerDuty in Oct 2025
Interview
Really quick and easy process. Started with a recruiter screen,, then had a 30 minute call with the hiring manager, then two hour-long technical interviews (live coding challenge (not LeetCode) and system design), and finally a 30-minute call with the senior manager over the whole team. Recruiter reached back out within a day of each interview to schedule the next step. Overall, the whole process took roughly three weeks and was really smooth and enjoyable the whole time.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at PagerDuty (Toronto, ON) in Nov 2024
Interview
Found the interview questions to be a typical experience, however my interviewer joined the interview noticably annoyed. They were quite unfriendly during the process and eager to end the interview. I knew within 5 minutes there would be no callback - there was not.
