This last search I had one like that. I wish I had done the bare minimum like you did. Instead I spent a weekish on this thing. They were suitably impressed and wanted to do an interview, after which I could expect on offer. A day before the interview I was told the pay for the position was about half what I was asking. Insanely for the skill set they were looking for. Mind you in the HR screen they had asked about expected compensation and I had been direct and upfront in my expectations, so it's not like they didn't know. Just decided to waste my time because they could.
