Honestly, feedback is the number one unresolved issue we have internally with the current process. We would love to give more feedback in a constructive manner on either code challenges or position fit. We can't even give our hired employees detailed feedback on their challenges after they've started.
I'm not a lawyer or HR professional so take this as just my personal ramblings not an official legal or company opinion. But, basically, as I understand it, because we're a federal contractor we're subject to some very strict federal regulations around hiring process and record retention. Additionally, as a remote company, we're subject to a hodge-podge of state level laws and regulations. Sadly, the combined impact means the only safe course is to not give any detailed feedback on code challenges to anybody.
That feels deeply unsatisfying on a number of levels, at least to myself personally, but it's the honest reason we can't as best as I understand it.
