I had an HR call followed by a home assignment that included three questions—two theoretical and one coding. The assignment was interesting, but I was very disappointed after spending 5–6 hours on it only to receive a generic rejection email.

There was no explanation, not even a single sentence about what was lacking in my solution. I find it quite disrespectful to candidates who invest several hours in such assignments when a company cannot take five minutes to provide basic feedback. Also asked HR to provide some feedback, and was ghosted.

I am coding for LLM safety and analyzing an article.
