I was recently stupid enough to have had taken a task involving Spring Boot. I literally had to learn Java in a week make a web application using it in a week. The recruiter knew my inexperience with the technology but have it as "a challenge to observe my performance in an unfamiliar setting." It made that rejection much worse. Particularly when I had my code judged for a framework I'd only used for a week.
