Yes. I've twice been criticized on "short" interview coding assignments for not having _enough_ unit tests. I had unit tests, just not enough in their minds.

One position was CTO and the other was a Software Director position.
Tech interviews are getting crazy.
- pc86 11y agoWhy is someone applying for CTO performing coding challenges?
- sundaeofshock 11y agoBecause the company is not really hiring a CTO. What they are hiring is a senior developer who will put in a full week of work coding, and then will be asked to put in another 40 hours dealing with management tasks. The "CTO" title is there to try to make up for the fact that the position is woefully under-compensated.
- Ensorceled 11y agoExactly. "Well, it will grow into a CTO role". They also didn't have an answer to "How often does the board meet and how long is my part of the meeting, typically?"
