Hi everyone,

My PR application has been under security screening for almost 18 months, and it will reach the 18-month mark this August.

I recently requested my GCMS/CBSA notes, and the security screening status is still showing “Received by CBSA.”

Has anyone experienced a situation where their status stayed as “Received by CBSA” for a long time and then directly changed to “Completed”? Or does it normally need to change to “In Progress” first?

I understand that GCMS notes may not always reflect real-time updates, but seeing “Received by CBSA” after such a long time is making me wonder whether the screening has actually started.

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who had a similar timeline or status in their GCMS/CBSA notes. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I’m currently interviewing with Xero for a Software Engineer role, and my next round is the Values Assessment interview.

For anyone who has recently gone through the Xero interview process, what should I expect in this round? Is it mostly behavioral/situational questions, or do they also discuss technical experience?

Also, what kind of questions were you asked, and how did you prepare for Xero’s values and culture?

Any recent experiences or tips would be really helpful. Thanks!
