Interview
Bad process. I was interviewed with the VP of R&D for a Full Stack Developer position.
He asked me some very basic questions and then told me that I need to do a very complex home assignment with Lua (the position doesn't have anything to do with Lua) and React, combining Docker and SQL DB.
It took me almost a week to finish the assignment and send it.
A week has passed and they didn't reply, so I've asked for feedback, and STILL NO REPLY.
After several attempts to reach them, HR told me that the company decided to close the position (AFTER I'VE FINISHED THE ASSSIGNMENT).
Stay away from this company, ONE OF THE WORST EXPERIENCES I'VE HAD!

Question 1
Home assignment using Lua and React combining Docker and SQL
Hi,
We at AiDock embrace any feedback, good or bad. It helps us be better. But being interviewed on July 2023, and commenting on October 2024 just seems unlikely |(we have no recording of any interview done on July 2023). According to that, I would question the rest of the feedback, as the company is very successful and with happy and satisfied employees.

Interview
LOOK ELSEWHERE.
This was the weirdest place I interviewed.
1st interview: meeting with the coordinator and COO. COO unprompted decided to call me immodest (you should never be modest in an interview lol) unintelligent and lazy, without giving examples of how he came to those insane conclusions speaking to me for 2 minutes-yet he decided to pass me forward! Weird right?
Next phase: I was given access to a channel on the company's discord-guess what? I saw all of the other candidates-some of them used their full names so I immediately looked them up and was able to know how qualified they were. There is no rule that candidates need to be anynonomous but still this is ...shady. On the channel, they gave me a task and gave me a week to complete it.
I had an interview with the team leads: PM and Product Designer. This was the only normal part of the interview process: they asked me questions about the task and gave me hypothetical situations and asked me how I would solve them. Overall great vibe.
Last interview: CEO.
This is where things got really uncomfortable. He asked bout my financial situation. I'm sorry, but that is unethical. He then explained that the company has funding difficulties and my salary would be unstable. So then, why are you hiring when you financial issues?
Not only that, he offered me a position that I wasn't interested in and wasn't even on their website. He told me that they have yet to choose a candidate for the position, but then I spoke with an employee of the company and they said that a candidate had already been selected for the position PRIOR to my interview with the CEO which is why he immediately jumped at the oppurtunity to give me something unrelated, instead of waiting for the process to play out.
All in all, a waste of my time-very unstable company with ethically questionable founders.
You shouldn't hire when you have financial issues, you should be up front with your candidates and not lie to them, especially when your employees will tell them the truth, you shouldn't interview a candidate if you have already chosen someone for the position, you shouldn't ask your candidate his financial situation, and you shouldn't insult your candidate in an interview.
STAY AWAY.
