I applied through a recruiter, and the recruitment process was as follows: HackerRank Assessment Talent Acquisition (TA) Call Live Coding Session Interview with the Hiring Manager I have experience in native iOS and Android development. Although both the recruiter and the job description indicated they were open to candidates with native mobile experience, it became apparent after the TA call that they were primarily seeking someone with React Native expertise. I also came across a review from another candidate who spent nearly 3 months progressing through the entire interview process, only to be rejected due to a lack of React Native experience. Fortunately, I only invested time in completing the HackerRank assessment and TA call before realising the misalignment.
