I was scheduled for an interview where the interviewer asked me to build a full-stack MERN application implementing all CRUD operations — allowing users to add a movie name, author, and rating, and save the data to MongoDB. The time given was one hour, but I needed about one and a half hours to complete it. Unfortunately, after 1.5 hours, the interviewer abruptly ended the meeting without any feedback.
When I followed up with the HR, I was told that the delay in submission was the reason — which I found quite disheartening, especially considering the effort I put in. I feel the behavior of the interviewer was unprofessional and disappointing.
