I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Ubisoft
Interview
The interviewer was cool and chill for the entire session. Most questions were catered towards the technical questions instead of the standard "Tell me your strengths/weakness" stuff.
Its good to prepare your portfolio and credientials beforehand to easily show it when asked upon.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Ubisoft (Sherbrooke, QC) in Oct 2024
Interview
Very timely, very cordial. Interviews weren't too spaced apart, felt like I got to have a thorough impression of the people I'd be working with. Even got some feedback afterwards, which is pretty rare! Not sure if that is typical though.
The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ubisoft (Toronto, ON)
Interview
3 separate interviews with different people. Recruitment then 2 experts. The interviews lasted between 30 minutes and 1 hour. The people I spoke to were nice people, they weren't intimidating at all. The overall interview experience I would say was good.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ubisoft (Montréal, QC) in May 2024
Interview
I interviewed with the Far Cry team. Originally I started with a screening call with a recruiter that lasted about 45min, where they went over the job, my past experiences, and future interests. Next was a 1hr video interview with some of the directors/ leads on the design team. They were super nice, professional, and the conversation felt natural. It helped to know about Far Cry in general, and if you haven't ever played them, at least understand the very basics of the game to be able to bring up/ reference while talking. Ultimately, the position was more technical than my experience, so it didn't work out, but that was the extent of the interview process.
