Oh yeah, definitely take home. After we’ve made it pretty far so that the candidate doesn’t feel like we’re just asking them to do an exercise as a form of screening. I also try to frame it as the exercise is instead of two more interviews where people would ask the same questions, and tell them not to spend more than a couple hours, although there’s no time limit. Trying to be really conscious of all the limitations and asks of “take home work” for an interview. I will say, especially as they get more senior, I tell them to make assumptions and document the assumptions they made. It’s part of the job (making good assumptions and communicating them to everyone) and I think it fits well into the framework of a take home product strategy exercise.
