If they're paying you for your time, this is kind of smart.

If they're not then it's a scandal.

They can easily make it not a scandal by changing things so applicants contribute to an open source project that they don't directly benefit from as a business. Easy solution
Let's just make qdrant to pinecone/weaviate/redis/etc. data exporters, that would make the company super happy! Free labor benefiting their competitors.
Why pay when you can get free labour?
