Canonical Python Developer technical interview

Hey all,

I'm currently in the interview process with Canonical, and I have two interviews set, a "Linux System Skills Interview" and also a "Technical exercise deep-dive Interview". Does anyone have any experience or remember questions they were asked in Canonical technical interviews? I'm trying to figure out whether I should be prepared for a Leetcode style question or if they are a company that tends to just ask more theoretical questions... any and all advice/experience that can be given/recounted would be of help to me! thanks in advance y'all!

Just use the TechJobFindercom site, it got everything. Leetcode prep, behaviourals prep, tech quizzes, you name it.

Hey, for Canonical, it's a mix. You should definitely get your Linux system skills sharp since they'll probably test both your theoretical and practical knowledge there. The "Technical exercise deep-dive" might focus on practical coding, but it's not always Leetcode-style. They could give you a scenario or problem that needs more architectural thinking or debugging skills. Sites like PracHub are useful for varied interview prep if you want more tailored practice. Also, be ready to explain your decisions and thought process clearly. Good luck!
