For a 90 minute take home exercise that I have to complete before I am allowed to speak to a human being, that is on average about 10 hours of work your company is expecting me to do, for free. And then I have to do a coding assignment afterwords anyways.
I will say that the fact that you post the salary range is good. This is the sort of time investment that would only be worth it for a top end salary.
- rsyring 5y agoHow did we go from 90 minutes to 10 hours? Also, I wouldn't say it's "not allowed", just not the standard process. We have, for specific reasons at the candidates request, done a Zoom meeting earlier in the process. Candidates are also encouraged to email us with questions and we put a lot of effort into being responsive and good communicators with the applicants.
