J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Canonical
Entretien
Contacted after some time by H.R. Had initial remote interview with engineering head. Seemed to go okay as after a week or so I had a engineering technical interview with a couple of USA based engineers. That also seemed to go ok. Then nothing, zero contact from H.R. despite requesting feedback several times. No feedback, no replies to emails. Good or bad for a company that prides itself in the distributed nature of it's workforce ? I'll leave the reader to decide.

Question 1
How do you cope with team that may not be in the same timezone/location?
It's an extremely long process that includes standardized tests, take home assignments, and several rounds of interviews. It was at least 5 rounds long and you interview across different teams.

They have a really long, tiring interview process. The first round was a written interview where I had to answer like 15 questions. Then a coding interview with 1 hour time that I could do anytime for 2 weeks. Then I had to take a personality test and they totally ghosted me.

The written part was unnecessarily long and the coding interview didn't give any feedback but the questions were fair. Online IDE was a bit slow. Some information multiple choice questions were not things that measure competency.
