What’s your alternative? This is an alternative to leetcode vomit at the least. I agree this question isn’t 100% inclusive but then no other method I know of is; at the least the only thing to worry here is people being frustrated or getting anxious. This can be mitigated by being nice and reassuring them that even a suboptimal solution is okay. As others mentioned, 3 hours is generous and probably accounts for people freaking out and then cooling down.
- mihaitodor 5y ago> What’s your alternative? I didn't comment here to propose an alternative, just to point out that the proposed approach isn't so good for some people, including myself. Since you asked, maybe people should stop looking for the one true way of interviewing and realise that they're hiring actual humans, not robots. The hiring process in this industry has become this lazy meat grinder which most people with actual decision making power swear by while bemoaning the lack of diversity (and I don't mean just gender). Some day, perhaps the industry will move towards more inclusive approaches.
