Interview
Got a code assignment with a deadline of one week and the remark "show us your C++ skills!". So I did, with CRTP and vectorization; I think I invested more time and effort in the assignment than it can be reasonably expected from an applicant. During the interview they introduced the company and what were working on, and then we discussed some aspects of my solution to the coding assignment and a few related C++ topics. Nothing particularly difficult, but one of my answers suffered from a possible division by zero, which noone pointed out during the interview, and it only occured to me on my way home. After the interview they asked for my salary expectation, and then within a day they decided not to make an offer.

Interview
Am besten die Firma vermeiden, wenn ihr noch nicht so erfahren seid. Die Firma hat mir eine Coding Challenge geschickt (ohne zuvor ein Vorstellungsgespräch anzubieten) und eine Woche gegeben, sie fertig zu machen. Ich habe sehr viel Zeit investiert, eine "clean" und funktionierende Implementation zu schreiben. Dass ich später abgelehnt wurde, ist mir eigentlich egal, aber ich habe zweimal höflich um Feedback gebeten und keine Rückmeldung erhalten. Es stört mich nur, dass ich auf jeden Fall zur Ablehnung lediglich eine ganz allgemeine Email erhalten habe. Deshalb ist es zu empfehlen, dass die nicht so erfahrenen Softwareentwickler diese Firma während der Stellensuche vermeiden.

Gar kein Vorstellungsgespräch angeboten, es sei denn, man besteht zuerst die Coding Challenge.

Extrememly unprofessional.
They gave a coding exercise, which I worked on for a whole evening, submitted it and haven't heard anything since for over a month. I emailed to follow up but they have ignored it and it's been over a month since I submitted the code exercise.
