That is an insane amount of work for a job application. Were you compensated for it at all?

- MarcelOlsz 1y agoNo. Should I invoice them? I'm still livid about it. The kicker is the position pays a max of 60-120k euros, the maximum being what I made 5 years ago.
- _whiteCaps_ 1y agoProbably too late now unfortunately. The job market is brutal right now, and you have my sympathy. I hope you can find a good fit soon.
- MarcelOlsz 1y agoMuch appreciated.
- zipy124 1y agoTBF that's a pretty top tier salary for Europe.
- MarcelOlsz 1y agoRight but we both know nobody is being offered the 120 right out the gate, so it's more like 100 max.
- userbinator 1y agoThe other comments here note that, and the author even stated it directly, that it was vibe-coded.
- MarcelOlsz 1y agoWrong.
- Jensson 1y agoIt isn't impressive to spend a lot of time on a hiring problem, you shouldn't do that. If you can't do it in a few hours then just move on and apply for another job, you aren't the person they are looking for. Doing it slowly over many days is only taking your time and probably wont get you the job anyway since the solution will be a hard to read mess compared to someone who solves it quickly since they are familiar with the domain.
