Definitely wanna make it harder. but as it stands it takes out about 2 thirds of applicants. I get feedback such as "I can't submit any data on that page because there's no form to submit". -> people with certificates and 8+ years of experience according to their CV. You overestimate many people out there. These are the people I wanna filter out. Even if this is the first time you see an API endpoint like this, it's a google search away to figure it out. As it stands it tests for: - reading docs; - using google; - detail-orientedness; - knowing how to use git; and that's about it. Many people do not pass this test in the real world, HN is a very specific demographic with a lot of skills compared to the average person who calls themselves a developer. But what you suggest is for Q1 next year: https://trello.com/b/YlUmnkGt/pre-screendev-feature-roadmap https://trello.com/b/YlUmnkGt/pre-screendev-feature-roadmap Definitely wanna test more skills, without making it too long of a test for someone experienced. Cheers for the feedback!
