1st: a 10min phone call with the HR
2nd: a technical test to do at home
Create a rest api about room reservation with 3 GET, 2 POST, 1 DELETE (create a DDD architecture, create the database, create business logic, create unit and integration tests, use algorithms etc..)
I spent 8 hours on it.
I sent the completed solution... it was 6 months ago, I’m still waiting for an answer...
I sent 3 emails to have some news to the HR, the 1st one sent 1 week after that the test has been completed and the 2nd email sent 2 weeks after the 1st one and the last one 1 week later, not any answer...
I don’t know if it’s only the HR, if they want free development or something else but from my experience, if you want a serious company... run away from Lodgify

Entrevista
I applied for the position online and got a reply in two days to schedule the first round with the HR
First Round: It was short and understanding the stack and experience in each domain I worked on.
Second Round: I have given an assignment to solve, a REST application that manages bookings. I have completed it before the due date and shared it with the team.
After four days, I got a reply from HR, saying the team was not satisfied with the improvements and refactoring did on the code. I asked for detailed feedback, like which area of code they were referring to and the mistakes are done on the code. I got the reply after 3 days with the code block they seem to be the mistake ("Each booking occupies only one unit" statement).
I replied to it by stating an example that it is as per the problem and not looks like a mistake anymore. But unfortunately, I didn't get a response for it.
In short, the assignment I did was exactly what it asked for and I had kept a level of expectation to qualify to the next round. Without a proper explanation, they have rejected my application and it doesn't look like a good attitude. I wanted to let them know that everyone is making an effort for the interview process(both candidate and interviewer). So if you reject without a valid reason, that is not meant for good company culture.

First stage: a quick 15 min call with the HR.
Second stage: a coding assignment, a REST API application to manage rentals, units, and bookings. Took around 8 hours.
Third stage: a technical interview to go through the coding assignment with 2 developers + general technical questions. The 2 developers were friendly and well prepared.
Fourth stage: a non-technical interview with the engineering manager to discuss how I behave in certain situations.
I'll try to keep this short. After undergoing all stages and receiving positive feedback during the 3rd and 4th stages, I receive an email a day later saying that all people involved in the my process will gather and share feedback. I was a bit confused here because the engineering manager did say that the next step is a call to go over the package and relocation. A couple of days later, I receive an email saying that they have doubts regarding my team fit.
I have to say that I am disappointed with them because I did receive positive feedback from the engineering manager during my 'team fit' interview with them. They also said next step is a call to discuss the package and relocation, but that didn't happen. They also said that they agree with the team that they enjoyed my interview. All this aside, the team fit interview went well. Lots of what would you do in this situation questions but nothing was out of the ordinary. The manager themselves said there is no right or wrong here.
I wouldn't mind being told they went with a different candidate, that's perfectly normal. I feel the way they handled this and the feedback they gave didn't make any sense.
I had a certain level of expectation and that was only because they gave me positive feedback and literally told me to expect an offer.
