The recruitment process involved the following steps:

• Applied through their website.
• Received an online coding assignment, which was quite extensive.
• Completed a remote interview.

Throughout this entire process, communication with the recruiter was solely via email. They were not particularly forthcoming with details about the role being offered. My coding assignment and interview both went very well. The interviewer appeared satisfied and impressed with the code and its adaptability to incorporating new changes. However, to my surprise, an offer was not extended. Despite sending several emails requesting feedback, I received no reply.

It is perfectly acceptable to deem a candidate unfit. However, I believe candidates rightly deserve feedback, as they have invested valuable hours in the recruitment process.
