I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Minto Group (Ottawa) in Jan 2021
Interview
The interview was a few years ago I remember that it very professional and respectful. I was hoping to get the job as a stepping stone into a more senior role. However, I think I may have been overqualified for that position which caused me to lose the chance of winning that position.
