After getting burned a few times too many, wasting days of work building entire applications (at worst) or even simply a few hours (at best), I won't be doing anything longer than a 20-30 minute fizzbuzz take home exercise. I will also never waste a day of leave on a company, unless it's the opportunity of a lifetime and I feel I have an almost guaranteed job offer if I jump through that hoop. My ideal interview proccess thus is: 1) Talk to me for 30 minutes (not your HR, an engineer that is trained for this task). Fizzbuzz me if you have to, but preferably at this point in my career, don't. 2) One or two onsites that last a maximum of 2 hours and are early or late in the day, so that I don't have to waste a day of leave. Don't fizzbuzz me or ask me edge cases on your language of choice in this. Don't come with a checkbox of things you want to hear. Have a discussion with me and actually pay attention to the things I have to say that aren't strictly part of the answer to your question.
