Submitted a take home assessment. Then had a follow-up interview on the same take home assessment, with more details. Tried to reach out to recruiter for feedback, but got nothing.

Entrevista
I set up a phone screening with a recruiter after being messaged directly on LinkedIn. The recruiter rescheduled the call twice thereafter, putting it 3 weeks out from the initial communication.
Overall, the phone screening seemed a bit frivolous and aimed at attracting a 'hustle culture' candidate which I am not. I guess that was apparent as I received a rejection email the next day (despite not formally applying to any positions).
I find being asked questions like "What is your work superpower" a bit tedious and infantilizing at this stage in my career. If you're serious about your product you should be asking serious questions.

The first interview was really great. They send me a challenge and I did it. Then the technical interview was not good at all. All the questions was not clear and what they expected was not clear. I did not pass but I receive no feedback of why. It seems that they invited me for a software developer position but they actually want a Data Engineer
