As a job searcher, I want to be able to spend as little time as possible on the interview process for one company. I don't mind researching the company or talking about their specific process, but I want to minimize the amount of time I have to take to prove my competence to them, because that's something that should transfer well between the different roles I'm pursuing.
I understand that not everyone has an OSS portfolio, but it's better than having 5 different companies give me a unique take-home project, and then having another 3 companies give me an algorithms assessment. If everything was "let's take a look at one repo you've spent <10 hours on" or "let's do leetcode problems" that would be preferable to the current state of affairs, because as it stands I have the worst of both worlds.
