The first round of the interview was with a recruiter from the Ohpen hiring team, after which I was asked to complete a technical assignment. I spent considerable time and effort on the task and submitted a well-structured solution via GitHub, which included two separate projects (an API and a console app) following a microservices architecture using the latest .NET technologies. However, the feedback I received was surprisingly inaccurate. The reviewer claimed there was no README, no unit tests, no documentation, and only one project provided—all of which were demonstrably false. The GitHub invitation I sent them to access the private repositories was never even accepted and remains in pending status, which strongly suggests the assignment was not reviewed at all or only partially. This was disappointing, especially given the time invested and the completeness of the solution. It reflects poorly on the review process and overall professionalism. I would advise other candidates to be cautious and ensure that your work is being fairly and fully evaluated. Pros: Initial communication was prompt and friendly. The technical assignment was a real-world use case and well-scoped. Cons: Extremely poor and seemingly superficial evaluation of the assignment. Feedback I received was clearly inaccurate and made claims (e.g., "no README", "no unit tests", "no documentation") despite all those elements being included and well-structured in the submission. The reviewer seemed to only check one part of the solution (likely a console app) and completely missed the main API project that showcased the required functionality, clean architecture, unit tests, and modern tech stack. Time investment (~1.5 days) was completely dismissed without a proper or respectful review.
