I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Rockstar Games (Oakville, ON) in Aug 2020
Interview
3 rounds, talk to recruiter, C++ codility challenge, talk with team leads and office head. Team leads and office heads were very rude. I talked to them about my personal projects and they asked me questions I had already answered. Different team leads then repeated the exact same question that someone else had just asked despite the fact that I had answered them already. It was clear no one was even paying attention in the meeting.
Recruiter was polite and replied quickly. 3 codility questions, 2 easy and 1 hard.
