One of the very few very negative experiences I've had in my 10 year long software engineering career. The recruiter asked me to complete a coding challenge (home test) which was some data manipulation and grouping, using TypeScript. I completed the challenge, covering all of the criteria asked, and after waiting for more than a week for an answer, pinged the recruiter who he gave me the generic negative reply. I kindly asked for more elaborate feedback to both the recruiter and the engineer who did the review, got no replies. Never do coding challenges before the 2nd step of the process folks!
