- senko 15y agoAssuming the test project isn't something complicated, good devs wouldn't need to spend an entire day fixing it. It definitely would take more time than just sending CVs around, but other screening techniques take time as well, and can be a lot less effective (eg phone interviews).
- rhizome 15y agoThen why do you yourself use the phrase, "lose a day?"
- pagekalisedown 15y agoThis is how I feel when I'm asked to do a programming test that takes a significant portion of my day: http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/2006-05-06/ http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/2006-05-06/ I should start charging my daily rate to do them. :)
