I don’t know if I’m desirable, but definitely selective. I targeted a few dozen roles I found, all of them at companies I was interested in. I got replies from a dozen or so, and ended up interviewing at 8. All them were very pleasant, even interesting in some cases. These were all places that are well-known here so maybe there is a correlation? I don’t like the take-home assessment trend, but I do understand it from a hiring perspective.
