The whole interview's tone of voice was pretty unpleasant and I regret that I've closed my eyes to all red flags present and invested my time into it. Definitely not doing any assignments for a company for free after this. Thanks, lessons learned.
I've been to 3 interviews with Wolt. The first one was a quite general overview of the company and position. On the second one, I met two developers who were actually not qualified to interview for this position as they were working with different stack and close to zero idea on what to ask and how things are overall going in the field. One of them was keeping silent for 1.30h without even saying 'hi' and 'bye' and another one was struggling to formulate the questions. I communicated to the HR that it's not a position I'm interested in and was suggested to try for another role, which is fine, but I wasn't given an opportunity to meet the team and decide if I want to continue and was directed right away to the assignment stage. Well, fine. Overall. the task is pretty broad. even though it looks simple in the beginning. Since the scope isn't specified, it's completely unclear what exactly is expected and what they would like you to focus on. Even though I've invested quite a bit of time into documentation of this project, I still got a feedback that the project isn't documented enough. Being 7 years in the industry I haven't seen anything documented on a more thorough level. Speaking of feedback, after sending the assignment I haven't received a single message from the HR and had to bug them for quite a while to receive the feedback that was actually promised. I guess if you aren't persistent enough they just ghost you and that's it, which is poor hiring ethics in my opinion. The received feedback is super vague and doesn't feel personal at all btw.
TL:DR: don't recommend. recruitment is unprofessional. assignment is rather big, the promised feedback for it is vague and will leave you with a bad taste in your mouth.
