Hudl interview questions

This was actually my first interview where I didn't already personally know the person who was interviewing me, so I was pretty nervous and not sure what to expect. Their communication was top notch and I felt like there were clear expectations regarding the process. Everyone on the interviews were personable and easy to talk to. The first round was an interview with the manager of the specific sales team and the second round was a project where I presented a sales pitch to a team.

The recruiters seem like nice people, but the Tech/Engineering team has no clue on what they are doing / hiring for. It is being marketed as a ONE YEAR CONTRACT role (which mean you can be out of a job in a year) and at the same time its 5 days WFO. Initially a recruiter reached out on LinkedIn which then converted into a 30 minute call. Basic 2way introduction. Next was the interview with the hiring manager where all questions were asked around everything except the actual testing stuff. I even confirmed if I was being interviewed for a TECH/QA role or something else. The questions mostly were wayward and unrelated to the role. This then was followed up by a take home assignment. This is where they dropped the ball. The assignment was mailed by the recruiter with just 2-3 lines of guidance and no specifics on how they wanted it to be designed (TDD vs BDD; POM vs PageFactory; etc) What's even weird is the assignment was to test the LIVE login page for HUDL's website. Yes you heard it right - LIVE LOGIN PAGE- of their website. I did complete the assignment before the deadline and submitted it and 2 days after my submission I see that the login page has been completely changed/ revamped!! Imagine the horror and shock to see my tests failing due to a change in the system under test which was NOT communicated at all. The login page must have had a major change that was pushed to production after I submitted my tests. Imagine you are asked to practice playing for a football team and you do that but when you turn up, the company asks you to play for a tennis team!!! In all the companies I have interviewed previously, the ASSIGNMENT is usually based on a different ENVIRONMENT where the SYSTEM IS UNTOUCHED and DOES NOT CHANGE! If the engineering leaders at HUDL cannot even comprehend this basic caveat and are unwise enough to give a production level, frequently changing system to the interviewees as an assignment; I thing we are better off not working under them! My assignment was rejected due to "code not working" and other ridiculous comments which should've been informed in the guidelines of the assignment to begin with. Dear recruiters, pls ask for feedback from the candidates too. A lot of time and efforts are invested into the assignment and it feels terrible too see it rejected for juvenile and preposterous reasons. To anyone interviewing for HUDL - make sure you get clarity on the 1yr contract role + the take home assignment
