The expectations for the take-home work also need to be crystal clear.
I've gotten data science ones where you could spend anywhere from an hour to an entire career working on that one particular problem. If it's meant to be a simple pass-fail exercise, say so up front and reserve the interview for discussing how the solution could be improved.
- fabatka 5y agoI have recently had similar experience, but sending an email with my questions solved this problem. Of course if their HR or team is slow to answer it isn't worth that much, but still better than not writing that email (you can still point to it later). I was even thinking, maybe this is part of the test, to see how comfortable/proactive the candidate is with asking/clarifying a task.
