Backend Developer Interview Experience - Amsterdam, Netherlands
Process
A recruiter found me on Stack Overflow, where I have a complete "developer history." Based on my experience, they recommended I apply for a specific position. After an email exchange, they sent me a HackerRank challenge.
After I passed the challenge, I had a phone call with the recruiter about my experience.
A few hours later, I received an email from a "no-reply" account stating that I was "not a good fit."
If my experience didn't fit the position, why did they ask me to apply?
