      Junior Software Engineer Interview

      Jul 3, 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Canonical

      Interview

      Very lengthy, takes about three months, often longer. It's split into many stages, each of which filters out many candidates. The first stage is a very lengthy written interview, followed by a strange pseudo-IQ test of sorts. The second stage is technical interviews (likely three of them). The third stage is managerial interviews.

      Question 1

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Canonical

      Interview

      Hella wack thru and thru. They require somehow an even longer essay than the one you originally apply with. I feel that they don't even read half the words on it tho.
