I applied and received a warm response with a coding challenge, however I never heard back from them after I replied with my solution. I tried to follow up multiple times. No feedback, even a simple "sorry/no" is poor experience.
If you email I'm happy to review, we do mean to reply to any candidates we engage with, my apologies if that didn't happen. Note: this position doesn't require a coding challenge.

Hello,
Hope you are doing well!
My name is Irina and I work for Team Extension, a nearshoring and offshoring technology company based in Bucharest. Just to make it clear, we are not a recruiting company and have dedicated resources on company location.
I am contacting you about your recent post from news.ycombinator.com site. You are looking for a Frontend developer. It looks like a great opportunity as we have Frontend developers available. Will you be interested to discuss this over a short conference call on June 14th at 17:00 EET or June 17th at 18:00 EET.
Looking forward to hearing from you and have a nice day!

Hmm, let's see, how can we scare off the typical HN reader. We're bootstrapped, so we have zero interest in Silicon Valley. We're a 100% remote company, but we have overlap time and synchronous communication, because those things matter. Our only investors are our customers, so everything revolves around them, not you. And we're not looking to sell or be acquired, because, shocker, we actually love what we're doing and who we're doing it with and want to keep doing it forever.
I'm sure you meant this to be tongue-in-cheek, but it comes off as a very superior and passive aggressive attitude. I recommend a different approach if you're trying to get people interested in learning more.
>I am a non-citizen with valid work papers. Can I be denied employment because my employer prefers to hire "Americans?"
>Generally not. A “U.S. citizens-only” policy in hiring is illegal. An employer may require U.S. citizenship for a particular job only if it is required by federal, state, or local law, or by government contract.
