Thanks for clarifying that your opinion was humble while insulting me. I was thinking of when I was getting my first job out of school, when I did three final interviews and landed one. The thing with the homework is that it typically comes well before the final interview and often even a phone interview. Often it would be the very first step in the process. I only had one application require a substantial (say, 4+ hours) amount of homework, but I had a lot more give 2 to 3 hour assignments. That was annoying, but considering I was unemployed and job searching full-time, it was manageable. If it becomes more common, as seems to be happening, it'll absolutely become an issue for anyone who has to do more than a couple of job applications, which probably includes most people trying to move up in position or relocate.
