I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks.

They approached me on LinkedIn, and I agreed. I put effort into the practical test, which was a program to calculate tax on stocks. I chose Python with some hesitation, but it was well-suited because it was a CLI and I only had a short time of 5 days. They asked for good practices and didn't specify a language or a programming language for the code. They gave me a generic rejection, like they give to all the others, and no feedback. I was only happy to find out that I wasn't the only one who wasted time with a silly little project. My stack is currently Java and Python. Maybe Python wasn't what they were looking for, or the salary was the real benchmark.

Salary expectations and English level.
