Asking to speak to an engineer isn't going to change much. If you really mean business insist they pay a nominal fee for your time. Not an hourly contract rate, more like the hourly salary rate of a mid-level dev. It's peanuts to them so if they won't pay they don't value your input so it's game over.
- rightbyte 8y agoI agree, but it's probably no a thing the recruiter can do without going through the boss of the boss and hassle with accounting department. Until a big body of of candidates require it, nothing will happen, and if too many require it, the employer will probably just quit giving home work. This concept of whiteboard interviews and assignments is quite alien to me. I've got three different software jobs since graduation and not one did any sorts of test they just trusted that I would not apply if I couldn't code. Never heard of any colleagues or former class mates that done any either.
