      Recruitment Lead Interview

      2 Sept 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Canonical in Aug 2025

      Interview

      They first send you a huge written test, then the link to the logic test at Thomas International. I was rejected at the stage of logic test. It is really surprising that as a candidate you have to invest to much time and if they are ready to reject on the above-average logic test results, there is no sense to do it as the next step. For the first written interview part I spent 2 weeks doing it and just received 'no more than We regret to inform you that we shall not be progressing your application' at the end. Very candidate unfriendly!
