I don't like these because it's not hard, can't really show skill as people aren't impressed unless you overengineer. I don't have time/desire for that - prefer algo questions as it's some entertainment at least. Although this is probably best way to hire juniors.

- nickdandakis 6y agoWhat does skill have to do with difficulty? Big red flag if you think the only way to impress someone of your coding skills is if you overengineer a solution. If some candidate submitted an overengineered solution, I wouldn't hire them. I agree on needing time to solve the take-home. That's the biggest con with this approach. If you don't have the desire to complete the take-home exercise, then you probably don't want to work there in the first place.
