J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez Canva
Entretien
Recruiter contacted few times in the last few years and I finally decided to give it chance.
1. Call with recruiter, you might be asked JS/Web questions like explain X, or what a function does.
2. Call with an engineer, it's 1 easy task that you will asked to implement step by step.
3. 2 rounds of technical interviews with more difficult questions.
Last part when it went wrong for me, I had 2 rounds separated but since I live in EU, I had back to back interviews after midnight. First I was definitely sleepy even though I had some coffee/redbulls and the second one was a disaster because I couldn't sleep properly the previous night due to high caffeine.
I did try to give them my preferred times which was early in the morning, but however I was given with midnight options. I don't get why they expect a person to perform well enough to pass a technical interview in the middle of the night.

Autres retours d’entretien d’embauche pour un poste comme Front End Engineer chez Canva
J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 4 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Canva (Melbourne) en mai 2026
Entretien
First round: AIP + SDA interview
1 hour AI Programming interview (50 mins Programming + 10min Q&A) + 1 hr System Design (40 mins Whiteboard system design + 5min Q&A)
The interviewer allocated 50 minutes for the AI Programming interview. However, because they frequently interrupted with questions midway through, we ran very tight on time. Fortunately, I managed to complete the system design portion ahead of schedule, which left the final 10 minutes to ask questions about Canva with the interviewer. Afterwards, my original recruiter left the company. Although another recruiter assured me they would provide feedback, they have gone silent since my last email reply.
