The job description listed Java, Scala and Python as languages for the position. I received an email saying they would like to more forward with the interview process and I should submit the attached challenge.

Interview
Give you a pdf doc with some application they want you to code from scratch, and upload it to github. If the engineer cant even run it, they automatically fail you. Take home task takes a few hours. Ridiculous method if you ask me, you want us to spend ~3 hours on a task only to risk losing all progress on the off chance the guy can't figure out how to run it? If you pass you go onto a 5.5 hour long virtual interview.
