    Look at any of their job applications, they're all like this: https://canonical.com/careers/3752633/application https://canonical.com/careers/3752633/application

    They're known for asking odd questions like "how did you perform in math in high school" and "please justify your performance in math in high school". It was actually my guess as well before I read the post.

  They made me do an online, timed IQ test, stressing that I should take it in my native language to not waste precious seconds understanding it in english. It was horribly translated, every sentence was written like something this: "A and B are two broters/sisters. A gives B 3 apples and he/she/them eats one and returns one to he/she/them…" at some point one section had the instructions wrong so I did all the questions wrong. There was no way to change the language or re-read the instructions to try to understand what the original text might have actually been. That's when I closed the tab. I'm a Debian Developer.
