Sure, but imagine all you knew was C++, which is true for many people. Several hundred lines of code right there. I'm a hiring manager, given questions like this and seen that exact result. Remember that many people cannot solve fizzbuzz.
- hyperpape 10y agoThen your choice is whether you want to hire people who only know C++. For some jobs, you don't. But if you do, you need to have multiple tests and choose one based on the candidate's skills. We have an in office test--the dev sits down at a laptop with internet access, gets clear instructions and scaffolding code. We know that the tasks take n minutes because we see the time that candidates take.
