I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Alberta Energy
Interview
I got a call from my recruiter and told me about the opening for contractor position and the process. He set up the date and time for video conference. On the actual interview date, there were some issues in the video and they had to do a telephonic interview. Overall the interview took around 2 hrs. There were questions from different topics.

Question 1
Most of the question were technical from different categories like change management, c#, sql, jQuery, etc. They also wanted to know if I have done any single page application. Also there were questions about RESTful api and LINQ.
The interview was in the Calgary downtown building. Intersting place, as security seemed quite high (government I guess). The interview ran along the lines of the standard walk-in 3-person panel interview. There was an HR person and two people from the technical team. Good questions covering wide area covered in the position - nothing too outside or irrelevent.

Question 1
They were much heavier into ITIL than I was, so much of the deep down ITIL2 questions were outside my purview.
