      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Canonical (London, England) in Jun 2025

      Interview

      After 3.5 months of exchanges including : * written essay about topics like high school experiences and motivations * psychometric assessment (= can you read and logic quickly) * technical coding assignment * 3 interviews with engineers They provide a "candidate dashboard" to show your advancement in the interview process but there's no update since the last interview. I never received any rejection email either. It's been over a month since the last interview. I have sent emails to the hiring manager since the interviews but never got a response.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      There were some general knowledge questions related to the role I was applying for to prove I actually had the background and interest for the role. One of the interviewers asked multiple "tell me a time where..." kind of questions to try to hear a story that exemplifies a desired soft skill.
