you could also just give feedback in the cases where it is requested. As a fresh-faced out of college coder I was rejected from ThoughtWorks after spending 3 days on a coding question. Yes, I sucked - all I wanted to hear though was "we really wanted to see TDD, even though it was optional" or whatever. I asked for feedback, they didn't give it, I now and forever will have a negative impression of their company and will avoid them - and often people whom have worked for them - technicality be damned. You don't always need to give feedback, but a little compassion for those that are new would be nice.
