Absurd assessment, inconsistent scoring, instant ban — and support that never replies
I found rex.zone through LinkedIn because they post a lot of roles for math experts, so I assumed the screening would be reasonably aligned with actual math/AI work. Unfortunately, my experience was the opposite.
The entry assessment started with about 20 questions that were honestly not difficult. I went through them normally and didn’t expect any issue. Then the very last question suddenly turned into something completely different: an image of several strawberries and a single vague line telling me to “put strawberries inside a frame.” That was the entire instruction — no example, no clarification, nothing about what “correct” means. I was genuinely confused about what they wanted: one frame around the whole group of strawberries, or separate frames for each strawberry. I chose the second interpretation and framed each strawberry individually.
On top of the ambiguity, the interface on that strawberry page was not straightforward. There were multiple tabs and dropdown menus, and it wasn’t obvious which tool actually lets you draw or place a frame. I had to click around and experiment just to find the right tab/tool. That kind of “figure it out yourself” UI puzzle might be fine for a design test, but it felt completely out of place for evaluating a math expert.
After I submitted, the platform told me I got 2 questions wrong and showed a final score of 74.19/100. That makes no sense. Two wrong out of 21 questions does not naturally translate to 74.19 unless the last question was weighted massively — and if it was, why would the most heavily weighted item be an unclear strawberry framing task that has nothing to do with math expertise? The system also immediately marked me as Failed / Not Approved and banned me from further eligibility, as if I had done something wrong rather than simply encountering an unclear prompt.
What made it worse is the complete lack of support. I emailed them multiple times, politely asking for clarification on (1) how the score is calculated, (2) what the correct expectation was for the strawberry question, and (3) whether a manual review is possible. No response. Just silence.
Overall, this felt disrespectful and careless: a confusing “gotcha” final question, a score that doesn’t match the stated breakdown, a permanent rejection over something unrelated to the role, and a support team that doesn’t reply at all. I would not recommend rex.zone based on this experience, especially to qualified experts who value transparent evaluation and basic communication.
Would I recommend this company? No.
