Initially, the recruiter contacted me over the phone. The recruiter was professional, friendly, and genuinely interested to know my background. He also discussed the company and the role being offered. I was interested in the company because I had an inclination towards streaming technology, and I hoped to learn more in depth. I was emailed a project later that evening and asked not to use any third-party libraries.

I had to rush the project because I was interviewing with another company. Probably this was my mistake. The app crashed because of a simple mistake, and I got a rejection letter over email. The project was simple and took me a couple of hours to complete. I thought I did well in terms of code quality, but probably they were expecting something else. There was no feedback about the rejection, which was disappointing.

I would recommend anyone else who gets this opportunity to first dedicate a considerable amount of time to the project. Vimeo's open-source SDK will help you to understand their coding pattern. Also, I would recommend being more open to salary negotiation. I was not, which could probably be the other reason for the rejection.

It's a good company and I would recommend you to join it if you get an offer. Good luck!
