Thanks for leaving your Interview review.
Commenting on the task, we already have Conference feature in our product (justcall.io - search "justcall conference" - we built & launched that feature 2 years ago) for which you were interviewed. Pre-interview task is given to candidates to understand and learn about candidate's problem solving approach & how comfortable he/she is with kind of APIs/problems that our engineers work with/on on daily basis. Tasks are time bound because there are multiple candidates in the race for same role so speed (time) works as one of the scales to evaluate performance relatively. Hope this clears your doubt around the task & takes away the fear that we as a company are taking some sort of advantage by getting some random tasks done by the candidates as a part of our evalution process.
As a CEO, I consider integrity & transparency as our company's key virtues so I had to jump in here and reply to your feedback to address some of the points you raised which are absolutely in the opposite direction of what reality is.
Having said that, if you have any more feedback or ideas to share to make interview process at SaaS Labs better, feel free to ping me directly at gaurav [at] justcall.io
