Urban Insight interview questions

Started the process with an email questionnaire. Next was a video call with the CEO and COO. These meetings were very positive, and left me feeling very encouraged that this was a team I aspire to work alongside. Then was given an programming assignment. The deliverables were the code itself, and a live project link (which I was responsible for hosting myself). In my case, I opted to build a Drupal module to solve the problem but a minor bug, related to caching, was present on the live link. I was rejected on the spot with no feedback on the actual code. I promptly fixed the bug with the live link and sent a screencast demonstrating the working result. Have been ghosted ever since. Again, this remains a dedicated team that I do aspire to work alongside, but I feel this interview experience was a bit unreasonable. I understand the goal of striving for perfection, but minor issues can happen when deploying a live link to be used by multiple people, versus local development code. It seemed a little too “high stakes” to abruptly end the process without any meaningful feedback on the code itself, especially when I was told that I was an excellent culture fit, etc, in previous interviews.

First they do an Email interview with three questions. After that they do a video interview with operations manager and CEO, which I thought was cool because I hate having to go to an interview and waste money on gas/Uber and then you either don’t get the job or the interview is super fast. After the video interview you move on to take a skills assessment test with various tasks to perform in under 1 hour. After that if you do well you should move on to the interview tour unfortunately I didn’t get to move on and they sent me a very sweet rejection letter making me feel like there was nothing wrong with me and that the person the picked just had “more experience” but I just saw them repost the AD on Craigslist a day after rejecting me. Soooo I don’t know what that means. It does make me feel worse that they didn’t pick me and are still looking and lied about it. But overall a good interview experience because at-least I didn’t have to spend money on an outfit or transportation for the interview.
