Rakuten Advertising interview questions

Applied online and received a call from hr for a phone screen. While the interview went very well, the interviewer was pretty patronizing but seemed satisfied with my interview. I then received a ridiculous assignment which I had to do which was not at all relevant to my position neither was it in my resume/skillsets (the assignment was related to front end while this was a backend infrastructure position). On telling the hiring manager this, he still insisted I do the assignment. So after spending a couple of days learning these technologies which I mostly wont use in the job, I received a rather rude rejection email as I did not complete some part which was not even mentioned in the description. Terrible experience and an utter waste of my time.

I received an email from the "internal" recruiter which ended up being the same exact person that interviewed me for the same position for another company. Don't be fooled by the email. I find out this lady is a recruiting consultant for Slice and another start-up in the Bay Area. I'm not sure how many more companies she consults for but surprising she did not remember me. Her style of interviewing is not ideal. She will focus on two aspects of the job requirements and ask you multiple questions about your experience with it. If you don't answer strongly and yes to all the questions asked she will say that they are actually looking for someone with more experience in so and so. She must have a quota for phone calls because she should see by my resume about my experience and not waste my time and other job seekers scheduling phone interviews. She will end on the lines of: "You definitely have the creativity down, but we're looking for someone who has more experience creating content." "You definitely create good content but we're looking for someone with more PR experience."
