I obviously withdrew from the interview process already, but what you wrote is either plain untrue or you really do have huge gaps in the process. Here's what I have on my side:

- an entire email conversation (including quiz you sent me, which also took time to respond to) - I obviously used the same name and email domain which can traced back to my profile,

- the emails about initial call I self-scheduled and attended,

- the repo (under your GitHub org), a PR I opened (as requested) and two more emails from me - one was a confirmation of completion of the task and another to touch base after a week of complete silence.

The task was different from the one you linked - to write a scraper which extracts search results from Google page, according to the sample input HTML and expected JSON output that were provided.

Given the large delta between what you've experienced and what I can find on my side, the only thing I can think is that your application has been handled outside of our standard process (perhaps directly with someone?) and/or that the SaaS we use to manage the process isn't surfacing you in search.

The code challenge linked has been used for the software engineer candidates long before I began at SerpApi and, in the spirit of transparency, candidates have been directed to make their submissions via a PR to the public repository since almost our earliest employees, e.g. Ilya's submission can be found here: https://github.com/serpapi/code-challenge/pull/6

Can you please forward the email chain(s) to me at david at serpapi.com so I can look into it? Even if you've withdrawn from the process, I would very much appreciate having a copy of these to see what's gone wrong.
