Colloquio
A recruiter reached out to me 2 weeks after I applied and asked me to do a coding exercise. They said to only spend 2 hours on it, but that it was available for 5 hours in case I needed more time. It was a simple exercise to implement methods for storing and retrieving files, along with some unit tests.
I spent a lot of time on this exercise - ensuring the code was clean, well-structured and well-documented. I even added unit tests and implemented the "bonus" part of the exercise. I also made sure to have descriptive commit messages and a very descriptive pull request.
A few days later I got a rejection email with no feedback, which is their policy. They told me I could re-apply in six months. After wasting my Saturday on your BS exercise? No thanks!
As others have said, GitHub's interview process is awful. I'd recommend avoiding this company.

Colloquio
First stage recruiter call (45 minutes) which went well, both sides confirmed we'd like to progress to the next stage and the process was outlined. I was subsequently ghosted for 8 weeks, only getting a response when I emailed saying I'd withdrawn my application - to tell me that the team was being "rethought" and the job may not actually be available anymore but they'll let me know (they never did).
