Turion Space interview questions

Three step process: A video chat with a recruiter (30 mins), a video chat with the hiring manager (30 mins), followed by an in person interview at their offices ( 1 hr 30 mins). No coding, technical questions were asked at the final interview about the concepts in question. Was supposed to interview with four people but only two ended up showing up. Rejection came from an automated response from recruiter two days later. It seems like they already made up their minds before my final interview.

The interview process first began with a "phone interview" which was mostly a background check and a mini research exercise to see if you actually researched the company. I was then tasked to make a write up of how I would solve an anomaly detection problem. After the write up was accepted, I was then tasked on implementing the project along with a write-up outlining my findings. The project is definitely a time crunch and can honestly be a summer internship project all on its own. The project was honestly pretty fun, but after a week of submission I received a generic rejection email. I then reached out to the manager to ask for any feedback on my project, but I didn't get any specifics. Not sure if the company does this, but I got the impression that the interview project was just an excuse to get free labor and get new ideas.
