Front End Developer Interview Experience

June 19, 2018

Process

I had a 45-minute, mostly behavioral phone interview, then was emailed a coding assignment. The assignment was time-consuming, but I completed each requirement with 100% of tests passing. I emailed the completed assignment back to the person who interviewed me and got no response. I followed up a week later to check in and did not receive a response. I worked hard on the code assignment and was very disappointed they didn't bother to at least give me the decency of a response after I poured many hours of work into completing it. Overall, a very negative experience.
