I recently underwent an interview process with Canonical, and I must express my frustration, as I never once met an individual face-to-face—not even a recruiter. I urge others to consider the reviews on Glassdoor; they are indeed reflective of real experiences. During my interview, I was asked a multitude of questions that seemed entirely disconnected from the role, ranging from my high school grades to design feedback for Canonical products. The technical assessment felt misaligned with the job's actual requirements, featuring challenging problems akin to HackerRank, including complex graph-related questions. Following a psychometric test, I received a rejection email without any form of feedback or explanation. I wish you luck in scaling your company with such practices, but I fear you may find yourself limited to hiring entry-level candidates who excel merely at textbook problems or, worse, those who resort to using AI to pass technical tests. This approach may not only alienate well-qualified candidates but also hinder your company's growth and innovation.
