      Toronto
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Burns & Wilcox (Toronto)

      Interview

      Contacted via linkedin by HR. Brought in for fist round with HR and another person, second round with owner and another executive. Both interviews and interviewees act and treat you as if your lucky to be interviewing with them. Make you feel as if your one of many options for them, overall negative experience and waste of time.

      Phone screen, on-site interview with management, then phone call with Senior VP. Overall pleasant experience. HR followed up with me throughout the process and was very helpful. Phone calls were brief and the onsite interview was about 45 minutes and I had a chance to tour the office.
