I reached out to a recruiter and was scheduled for a phone call that week.

I passed the phone screen, but then did not pass the coding test.

I asked for feedback on the coding test, but they stated they were not allowed to give any.

The phone screen wasn't very fun or challenging. It mostly consisted of trivia questions, such as, "What is a CSS sprite?" All the questions were the type you could Google and easily find as the first result, with no actual problem-solving required. The only algorithm question was, "What is the best-case time complexity to sum a list of numbers?"

The coding test involved building a Connect Four app using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. No grading criteria were given, nor did I receive any feedback besides the rejection.
