I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Clipboard in Jan 2024
Interview
First round is online test, consisting of a hacker-rank-like challenge, a code review, and a brainstorming session.
Second round is a pair-coding interview, much more easy than the first.
Third round was to author a technical design document, limited to 2 hours.
Fourth round is to defend the design in front of an engineer.
After getting positive feedback in all rounds they ghosted me. Tried to contact them twice, no response. Seems like they are phishing for technical design document ideas for their internal work, without the intent to actually employ somebody.
Spent a few hours completing their take home assessment implementing all requirement and even more.Spent an hour to walk them through this assessment live and answered all the questions and interviewer also agreed. Received a generic rejection a day later. Wasted a few hours of my time for no reason

Interview
1. Got the coding assignment, completed it, passed that round
2. Passed the second round as well
3. They gave a technical design document (TDD) to prepare on a topic
4. Submitted a 10-12 page design doc spending 2 full days perfecting it which they said they liked and scheduled my interview, but cancelled at the last step on the day of the interview
The recruiter ghosted me.
Spent so much time doing the coding assignment + the design doc (TDD) just to get ghosted even after them saying they liked it

*BEWARE*
1. As many people said, even if you answer correctly it will be rejected. They're either not hiring or there's something else going on.
2. The test setup isn't correct for the given scripts so this repo clearly isn't even being maintained. The design is fairly poor as well.
3. There's an unknown package installed. I worked in a sandbox and deleted it as soon as I was done
