"Yes, You Can Use AI in Our Interviews – In fact, We Insist”
At Canva, the hiring process for frontend, backend, and machine learning roles has evolved to reflect real‑world engineering workflows.
Candidates are now expected and encouraged to use AI tools like Copilot, Cursor, and Claude during technical interviews—because that's what their teams actually use.
Instead of traditional algorithm drills, interviews now present realistic, ambiguous challenges that require iterative thinking, sound technical judgement, and the ability to read, critique, and improve AI-generated code.
Canva believes that this transparent, AI‑assisted approach produces stronger signals about candidate performance and better mirrors day‑to‑day engineering.
