Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
What about the role interests you most/why do you want to work for Canonical etc.
They give a long form to fill with multiple questions. I have 100% exact matching experience required for the role along with the good academic scores they require, yet every single time that I have applied, I have been rejected, not even given a chance to go the next stage to prove my skills. They really need to relook at their interview process as they are just culling out candidates for no reason at all. I also fit all other requirements with respect to background, location etc. Next time don’t post positions you don’t want to hire good candidates for or just reach out personally to candidates on LinkedIn to deem fit, and consider changing the TA/Recruiter team with someone who actually understands which candidates match with the position.
J'ai postulé via une autre source. J'ai passé un entretien chez Canonical (Barcelone) en oct. 2025
Entretien
No real people interviewing. You have to do an interview in writing and then a psychometric test before engaging in any conversations. Both stages take at least 2 hours. I don't recommend.
