The recruitment process for Senior roles is fundamentally misaligned with the 2-3 hour timeframe they suggest for their take-home assessment. While the task is framed as a short exercise, the requirements demand a full-stack implementation including UI, database migrations, and deployment—all using a bare-bones boilerplate that lacks basic configurations like Jest or Linting. Expecting a candidate to deliver "technical depth" and high test coverage while simultaneously forcing them to spend limited time on basic environment setup is a poor evaluation of seniority. Ultimately, after investing significant unpaid hours into a deployment-ready application, the process concluded with a generic template rejection and no actionable feedback, reflecting a lack of respect for the candidate’s time and professional expertise.

Standard HR interview into an interview with the lead. General questions about your background related to your resume. General technical questions about the role you're applying to. Not sure if there's whiteboarding past the second interview. Didn't get a 3rd.
