The changes mentioned by the reviewers are valid and would be part of a production application and a code review process, but your test is flawed and you will miss many qualified candidates. In general, this is nitpicking. This was a coding exercise, not a complete solution. My time is valuable. This was a taste of what I can do, not what I would do for a production application.
I disagree with your evaluation for the following reasons:
Here’s a control test for you. Have a current engineer complete this test anonymously and then you ask your reviewers to score it. Given that they are already hired, they should pass, right?
