J'ai passé un entretien chez Canonical (New York, NY)
Entretien
The interview is extensive and requires considerable patience, as candidates must consistently maintain their focus, remain composed under pressure, thoroughly process complex, detailed questions, and thoughtfully articulate clear, precise, insightful, and highly relevant responses throughout the entire discussion.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
They asked me to write a lengthy essay about how I say I was in the top 5 - 10% in my high school and undergraduate and then asked to specify technical details about Kubernetes and cloud
Overall 6-8 rounds took around 5months.
Software Architecture interview : gave me some scenario about software development and asked me about what I would do, what tech stacks I would use, how would I manage a project, my open source contributions, agile vs waterfall etc. and other software development practices

J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Canonical (Nairobi) en avr. 2026

The interview was quite accomodating since the first written interview was for 2 weeks. The second one was for 1 month giving time to do them. It is not suitable for someone seeking for a job in the next one week, month or two
Terrible experience on so many levels. I wrote an 10 page essay and got rejected. Second interview is an automated leetcode style question. Never got past to the third step.
