That is the key part on hiring side - take home must be reasonably scoped and relevant to future work experience.
Id say anything ~1 work day is a good upper limit.
- giantg2 2y agoBut the time limits won't be even. Give people 24 hours to turn it in and you'll have some doing the expected 8 hours of work and others who might do 16 hours of work. Still, I don't want to spend 8 hours on an interview task. If you want to see work that I've created for personal projects, just look at Github and websites I provide on the resume. Don't make me spend a full day doing busy work for a job that I statistically won't get.
- aristofun 2y ago1. That should be one of the last steps only for someone you want to hire but just want to make sure he’s not a fraud 2. ~8h of work should be an estimated task scope for average developer on position you hiring for, or for candidate’s experience 3. Ideally it is an option to choose from (“you want live coding sessions or take home assignments?”)
