      Communications Specialist Interview

      11 Nov 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Canonical

      Interview

      The interview process was polite but impersonal, with disorganized scheduling, generic questions, minimal culture insights, and sporadic follow-up. Technical assessment was basic, and feedback or offer details were lacking, leaving a somewhat detached, transactional experience.

      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Canonical

      Interview

      Horrible. 9+ interviews for being rejected after the weirdest interview with a VP with little feedback. And that includes an assignment with a full on communications campaign for them. I don't recommend it at all.

      Communications Specialist Interview

      14 Apr 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

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

      Interview

      Very long interview process. Three one hour interviews with one interviewer in each interview, none of the interviewers were from the team I was applying for, all of them were from marketing/content which made it more difficult for them to answer my questions. Their questions were repetitive across the 3 interviews. Was asked about my most successful comms campaign in each one, I thought it was best to maintain a consistent story and answer but was told by the 3rd interviewer that "we've heard enough about that project".
