For the complaining elsewhere in this thread about how leetcode filters for people who have free time to work on it and thus selects for upper middle class... this is even worse in that regard. Furthermore, the contributions of a new grad are... often "poor".
The take-home test is similarly derided in many circles that refuse to do leetcode and the "write this program" is even less transferable to doing interviews at other companies.
