Yes, they explicitly mentioned it in the rejection mail. I quote: "the answers regarding terraform vs Ansible were overcomplicated".
Obviously I'm biased towards myself, but I've been an interviewer as well and if someone develops on their own an answer like I did, they would pass the interview with flying colors, because they would have shown me that they understand what's behind the thing.
Again, it's my side of the story, they probably have another version, but still I think I dodged a bullet.
nah, it's pretty clear, they shared their side of the story in what you quoted. damn, that's got to hurt. it feels like failing a test in school because the teacher is pedantic, not because the answer is wrong. maybe they were looking for an excuse but at least you are not left guessing otherwise. that's the only thing i can think of that would be worse.
