Applied through LinkedIn and had a 30min call with the recruiter about general work history and current role. Sent me a tech challenge with a purposely vague user story and some api docs, creds and a reminder not to spend too much time on the project. Immediately looked at their api to plan my data fetching in the app and noticed that there was no current/future data and no way to link a teacher to their classes. I sent 4-6 emails to the recruiter explaining that the data wasn’t there to complete the exercise and finally asked if the devs could provide a working request. The dev request worked but using a parameter not listed on their api docs (great job guys). So after days of faffing around I can crack on and finish this tech challenge (which I shouldn’t spend too much time on). Smashed out the app and wrote some tests. Thinking that I’ve given a decent effort but purposefully left some things to discuss in the next stage. Couple of days later recruiter calls saying sorry not going to progress with you, it was really competitive and that the devs will try and give you some feedback but I’m on holidays next week sorry bye. Week later no feedback but might’ve dodged a bullet going off my experience. Thanks BeyondCo you’re just like the rest of them. Terrible!
