I applied online. I interviewed at Canonical in Nov 2024
Interview
It was very long but very informative and everyone was supportive, one or two of them can be pretty technical. But the overall experience was very positive. The waiting time is super long, and there are several written tests you need to do as long as the first written assignment. Lots of questions about high school which was kind of weird.
