Applied online and got a take home assignment 2 weeks later. I submitted my project the same day but couldn't get any follow up (emailed recruiter, messaged on linkedin) for 2.5 weeks. Just got a generic "We have decided to move forward with other candidates in the process who are more closely aligned with the requirements of the position" email. Why waste my time with an assignment if I don't align with the job requirements? Why wait almost 3 weeks to decline my application if you had my resume since the start of the process?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given this Open Weather Geocoding API (link redacted), please write a utility that takes a city, state, or zip code and returns the latitude, longitude, place name, and any other necessary information from the API. Your utility should make use of the Coordinates by location name and the Coordinates by zip/post code endpoints. Your program should also be able to handle multiple location inputs.
Take home test, review take home, meet with business analysts, then a large all day coding interview. If Dakota Favors is your recruiter, good luck. He will not answer your emails and will lie to you to save face. Dakota should be completely ashamed of himself and should not be a recruiter.

Got an email after applying about a coding exercise which I completed in a couple hours but “failed” because my solution wasn’t “extendable”. It was in my opinion but oh well. Waste of time!!
