      UX Researcher Interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Canonical

      Interview

      The interview process was bizarrely complex, involving not only multiple interview rounds but also a psychological test and even questions about my high school achievements. Despite this, the interviewers — including the hiring manager — were very nice, professional, and welcoming, which made the overall experience enjoyable. Unfortunately, I was rejected in the end due to my salary expectations not aligning with their location-based salary range tables. This was disappointing since my request was reasonable and has been easily met by other companies.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      At high school, how did you fare in mathematics and physical sciences? Which were your strongest subjects in the hard sciences, and how did you rank in your class?
