Entrevista
This was the interview for the position in AD OPT division, Montreal. I was first interviewed by a corporate recruiter, 10 min phone interview. Standard questions related to experience, motivation and position fit. Interview with three team members was scheduled the same week.
The in-person interview has 20-30 min part on motivation, background and career goals. Then you are given 20-25 minutes to prepare a sketch of answers to the technical questions. You are then asked to answer the technical questions on board in French.
Total duration of the interview is 1-2 hours.

Programming questions: (i) write recurcive finction to evaluate Fibonacci sequence f(n) = a f(n-1) + b f(n-2) for arbitrary n; (ii) given VAL, write a function to move the first node in the linked list with data field equal to VAL to the head of the list; (iii) reverse engineering of a nested loop with weired indeces.
Three questions on linear programming. Make sure you go over theory of linear and integer programming before attending the interview.
Waste of time to attend the in-person interview if you cannot speak French fluently, which does not make a lot of sense for a big corporation like Kronos.

Had two phone interviews to gauge compatibility. Third phase included a database test. I enjoyed this immensely because I was expecting a 50 question certification exam. Instead, I received two issues to resolve using SQL Server. I had one hour to complete the task. Immediately following was a conference call to discuss the results. I appreciated the real-world problems and solutions. The final interview was with the director and system architect. Both were approximately 30 minutes long.
