Domande di colloquio presso Applied Data Science Partners

I was reached out to by a recruiter and asked if I would like to submit an application for a specific role. I applied and then got scheduled for a call with the recruiter in which the recruiter forgot they reached out to me asking me to apply, and were me why I selected ADSP to apply. It was a bit strange, but moving on. I was then scheduled for a Depth of Expertise style interview where I talked about my experience and was asked various questions. I was told I did very well then I was moved on to the next phase where I was given a Take-Home task. This was something backend specific where you are asked to used specific technologies they use in their tech stack and build something production ready. They say you should complete the task in about 6-8 hours but give you about 1 week to submit, so you can pick when to do it. I would say I started it at about 8am and finished around 8pm the same day, for reference. I was not sure if I should spend more time on it, considering the fact they suggest 8 hours, so I did not. It's a bit unclear, but I guess you can spend the entire week on it, if you like and have the time. I submitted the task and received feedback fairly quickly. I was told that even though there are gaps they still wish to speak to me because my skill set looked interesting, so I got scheduled for an In-Person interview at their office. I went to their office but I was not really getting the best vibes, I felt like they were both busy and a bit annoyed to have me there, and not a lot of enthusiasm in general, it felt very low energy. Based on this I kinda expected how things will go, but, even though before they were responding quickly, now it took several days longer to get a response, which was a rejection. They provided feedback, mentioning the gaps from before, which was a bit disappointing, since I was told they wanted me to speak to me and asked me to go to their office and continue the process. Getting feedback was useful, and initially the process felt ok, but at the end it turned a bit strange, at least that was my experience.
