I applied for a Senior Ruby on Rails / Fullstack role through Proxify. The process initially moved forward to an English assessment and then to a Codility technical assessment. The technical assessment experience was the main issue. I received reminders saying the challenge was pending and that I still had time to complete it. When I was unable to complete it before the original deadline, I used the available option to request an extension. The platform indicated that the extension would be valid for seven days. However, when I tried to access the test on the second day after requesting the extension, the platform would not let me proceed. It redirected me out, showed errors, or displayed messages suggesting that the test was cancelled or closed. From my side, I had not exceeded the extension period shown by the platform. I contacted Proxify explaining the issue and asked them to reopen or extend the challenge so I could complete it properly. I also shared feedback that their assessment flow would be much better if candidates could validate specific skills such as Ruby, Rails, Git, React, or SQL once and attach those results to their profile, instead of having the entire process depend on narrow deadline windows that can fail because of platform issues. What made the experience more frustrating is that shortly after this happened, the same type of Proxify role continued to appear through LinkedIn job alerts as actively recruiting. From a candidate’s perspective, it felt inconsistent: the company was still promoting similar roles while the assessment access issue remained unresolved. Overall, the process felt inefficient and fragile. I do not object to technical assessments, but if a platform offers an extension, the access should work as stated. Candidates invest time preparing for these processes, and the assessment system should be reliable enough to support that.
