As an interviewee, I don't care. Most take home tests aren't that difficult and don't take that much time. And it's coding, which is much more enjoyable than meetings.
Plus, there's the fact that I don't do well in live coding interviews. I get a version of "stage fright" where my mind goes blank and thinking becomes impossible for a bit. I don't experience it anytime on the job, either. Just in interviews.

- PainfullyNormal 4y agoI'll try again using shorter words. > You don't care whether you have almost no effective chance to actually get a job? Grug care. Grug can't pass live coding interview. Grug freeze. Grug ask for take home test instead. Grug not care about "perverse incentive." Grug want job.
