I applied to Solace and received an auto-reject a few days after. I then receive outreach from an internal recruiter saying they want to interview me which was a bit confusing given that I received an auto reject already. Chat with the recruiter talk about the company do the initial screening and I am invited to do a two hour technical assessment. I do the assessment. It's well designed open-ended and I felt gave a good opportunity to demonstrate how I work in what areas I would address according to the challenge. I put the work in submitting my assessment and receive an auto reject the next day. Given that I just put two hours of my time and I reached out to the recruiter if there was any feedback and the response was that they don't get feedback it's past or fail. Giving the time wasting affect here I would not recommend interviewing at this company process is a little backwards and at the end of the interview series they want you to fly on site to complete a two hour interview which given how they've treated others in the process that you can read your glass door could also be a huge waste of time.

I spoke with a recruiter for about 20 minutes then. Solace had me work on a SPA React application with vague instructions on my own time. They requested that I upload my project to a public github repository and open up a PR to show my work. They provided no feedback and told me they were moving on with other candidates.
