I applied online. The process took 12 months. I interviewed at Canonical
Interview
Applied through LinkedIn, they sent me 20 questions to answer, each one I can write a book to answer! don't do that, they are absolute time wasters, you will get no feedback what's so ever, and they don't even send an email to say no, just keep waiting, when chased for a decision, they said we can not give you an answer, just wait!!!

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Canonical (London, England) in Jan 2024

Written assessment with many questions about career history, how to run teams and technical views.
