      UI/UX Designer Interview

      Jul 16, 2025
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Paris
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Canonical (Paris)

      Interview

      Very long and complex process. +5 interviews, personality traits tests, technical tests. In the end. They just send you a cold email without empathy or explanation to tell you that they are no longer interested with your profile.

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Canonical (Barcelona) in Dec 2024

      Interview

      I started with a written interview, which took me three pages to complete. This was followed by four additional interviews with a UX team collaborator, the UX team leads, a developer, and an HR representative. The process was quite lengthy for a junior position.
