I am definitely not satisfied with the result of my interview and I really do not feel that the effort and time I invested were worth it.

After a first online coding challenge, they asked me to solve a take-home project. I definitely do not think that this problem could be solved with the level of detail and providing everything they were asking for within the short period of time they "suggest" you invest on it.

I also received "technical" feedback, but I definitely do not agree with some of the observations the team made about my code. They mentioned some corner cases I allegedly did not take into account, but that is simply not true. I know which solution I delivered, and those details were taken into account. I just have the feeling that my solution was not very well read and whoever reviewed it was not paying much attention to it (or simply could not understand it).

Of course, I did not get the chance to explain myself because the feedback was provided by an HR recruiter (not the person/people who reviewed the code) and within a 5-minute timeframe.
