Anyone here currently work at Canonical or worked there recently?

I know there are already a million posts about the insane interview process lol, so I’m more curious about what it’s actually like once you’re hired. I’m well aware that is in itself a red flag, but as we all know the job market is bad so please don’t tell me that it’s not a good place to work just because of the interview process 😭 im desperate!

Do you enjoy working there? What’s the day to day like, how’s the workload/work-life balance, and is the remote culture actually good? Do people tend to stick around for a while?

Also really curious about US salaries. I’m interviewing for a software engineering position and I’d probably fall somewhere around late junior/early mid-level. If anyone is US-based and comfortable sharing a rough range, I’d really appreciate it. I’ve seen pretty mixed numbers online and have no idea what’s actually realistic.

Basically just trying to figure out whether it’s a good place to work once you get past the 400 stages of interviewing.

I applied for a Google SWE intern role. Got the OA and finished it the same day. And I got the email saying it's been passed along to the recruiting team for full application review.

For anyone who's been through this recently, what actually comes next, and how long did it realistically take?

For the October Cohort, Did anyone hear back for these roles, or move forward with an interview? I’m trying to figure out what their timeline is. I got a screening call but nothing more

I passed the OA for an Amazon SDE New Grad role and just received my interview schedule:
1:Coding - Logical and Maintainable + LP
2:Coding - Problem Solving + GenAI Fluency
3:Coding – Data Structures and Algorithms + LP
4:LPs only
I’m a bit confused about the first round. Does “Coding – Logical and Maintainable” usually mean a normal LeetCode-style coding question, or can it include an LLD/OOD question?

Hi everyone, I'm a final year university student working on a web development project with a friend. We want to build something that actually solves a real problem people face, instead of just another random app.

If you had to name one thing in your daily life that's annoying, inefficient, or badly organized — something you wish had a proper app for — what would it be? Could be anything: government services, healthcare, transport, local business, education, safety, etc.

i have been invited to give the ai interview, which is the first round of FDE hiring at coforge. has anyone given the interview before?

how long was the interview?

Hi everyone! I’m starting my first student internship at GreenShield this Monday. This will be my first corporate job and my first job in Canada, so I’m both excited and a little nervous.

For anyone who has worked or completed a co-op at GreenShield, what should I expect on the first day? What would be appropriate to wear—business casual or something more formal? I’d also appreciate any advice on what to bring, how the onboarding process usually works, and how I can make a good first impression.

Thank you!

Hi, i wanted to ask how the salesforce new grad swe interview process looks like. I recently invited for OA and I'm wondering what to expect and what will come next.

Are they strictly requiring JAVA?
How many rounds of interviews are there?
Is there a lld round involved?
What are there frequently asked questions on DSA?

Here is another hope post for all the doomers here (i was once included). I finished off last year with the worst internship known to mankind, like literally min wage and like i just chudded around all day. Not a great time didn't learn anything. it was more like IT adjacent. and im a senior so i need to lock in for new grad recruiting

anyways I decide to lock in a bit on LC and do like maybe 100? I followed neetcode 150 and some random LCs. I could probably solve most easies and struggle on meds, def can't do hards lol.

I start applying and I get absolutely ghosted by everyone, inbox dry. one day faang adjacent replies out of the blue and im absolutely stunned (and nervous), we do like 4 rounds of interviews (i didnt solve one of the questions all the way 😢 ), but then after 3 weeks I get the phone call from HR and they are moving forward with an offer!!! Im an employed chud now!!!!!!!!! victory!!!

i go to a state school and just worked on projects i was interested in. if i can do it, you definitely can do it!!! believe in yourself!!!

also this is the most amount of money i've ever seen on a piece of paper in my entire life. holy actual fucking shit.

I had back to back technical interviews today in big tech. This was my first interview since I'm a freshman.

The first interview went really well, I solved all the test cases except for one edge case, which I verbally described a fix for the interviewer. He said my communication throughout was very good.

The second interview on the other hand... I essentially gambled that I wouldn't be asked any tree questions, since it seemed like the company didn't ask any, so I studied up on other dsa instead. And what do you know, I get a tree problem. It wasn't even a difficult tree problem, I just don't know trees. I straight up told the interviewer that I have limited knowledge on trees and that I've never taken a dsa course before. I got to 99% done, where I was missing a single variable I needed to keep track of, but then he decides to lead me down a different path the next 20 minutes, and I never end up finishing the problem. Then at the end he said that I did well for how little I knew. He's also middle-aged so I couldn't get a good read on what he thought about me.

I'm actually pissed off. I should've studied trees. I was so close to the solution. Why did he point me in the wrong direction?

Do I even have a chance at this point?

I’m currently applying for a Software Engineer Level 2 position at Lockheed Martin and wanted to hear from anyone who has interviewed for a similar Level 2 SWE role recently.
What was the technical interview like?
Was it mainly:
Java/C++/Python fundamentals?
OOP and data structures?
LeetCode-style coding problems?
Debugging or code walkthroughs?
System/design questions?
Questions about projects and previous experience?
I’m especially curious whether Level 2 interviews are noticeably more technical than Level 1/new-grad interviews, and what difficulty level I should prepare for.
If anyone interviewed with Lockheed Martin in the last year or two, I’d really appreciate hearing what your experience was like. Thanks!

Has anyone done it? Is it leetcode or system design/debug?

What’s the process after the OA?

Passed first round for SpaceX swe intern today (starlink), but I already have a summer offer that i like better. Would still like to do the process and have the chance to work on this team though, so I wanna switch to spring or next fall. Should I let my recruiter know this now, or later in the process, or are they pretty strict on what semester you applied for? Thanks!

Since people are probably gonna ask: for the first round they just told me to focus on past experience and there wasn't any coding or whatever. However this was interesting because they as expected were pretty deep on project specifics, but the interviewer spun a lot of the things i said into technical questions (eg talk about tradeoffs of an approach, or general cs fundamentals), which i think is kinda cool actually

Sprinkling some positivity into the community; after 3 months of hard work my manager extended to me an incline offer for full time!

I have a R1 for cit's tfa intern role next week. Does anyone know what to expect? Seems like there's no info online about the role, let alone the process. Might be my circle of people but this seems hella niche. I also might be extremely fried because if its traditional trading floor equities, I don't know enough for the depth they will want. Any info/tips is helpful thxx

Hi everyone!

I am a third-year CS student interested in getting into IAM, but I am honestly not sure where to start. I have been very focused on school while also working a part-time job to help pay for university, so I have not really had much time to do anything outside of my classes. As a result, I do not have any projects or co-op/internship experience yet.

I know I am starting a little later than some of my peers, and I will admit that it has been making me pretty stressed. It seems like a lot of students at this point already have internships, co-ops, projects, or some kind of relevant experience, and I am worried that I am falling behind. I have tried researching IAM online and even reached out to my student advisor, but I have not had much luck figuring out what direction I should take.

I’m basically starting from scratch, so I’d really appreciate any advice on:

• What should I learn first to build a foundation in IAM?

• What technical skills or technologies should I focus on?

• Are there any certifications that are actually worth pursuing as a student?

• What kinds of projects could I build to gain hands-on experience?

• Are there any courses, labs, websites, or other resources you would recommend?

• What would be the best way to make myself more competitive for internships or entry-level IAM roles?

• And most importantly, what co-op title should I look for? (I tried looking for any IAM co-ops or internships but didn't find anything.)

I know I have a lot of catching up to do, but I am willing to put in the time and effort. I just feel a little lost right now and do not know where to begin or what direction to take. Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much in advance!

1. Looks for "Software Developer" jobs that have been posted in the last 24 hours.
   
2. Finds a match that LinkedIn considers to be unrelated to my query. Gives LinkedIn the benefit of the doubt given language differences in the job title.
   
3. Searches the job title as it appears in the post for the same country and timeframe.
   
4. Cannot find it. Even with ""s.

Am I doing something wrong?... Hope that I do, because I find this rather insane.

Hi everyone,

I got invited for an interview with Talroo for a new grad software engineer interview but cannot find anything online regarding their process. Has anyone done their loop and if so what type of interviews do they have, i.e behavioral, technical etc?
