1) Not so much in tech hubs, especially during the long boom of the last decade. And having to take the same test at potentially a dozen different companies every ten years is still a poor experience. 2) Surely an attempt at standardization in this industry, like the similarly hypothetical pipe dream of a widespread software tech worker's union, would include adapting to the unique characteristics and mores of the industry? There's no need to fully copy other disciplines' practices in complete detail. Though we should include the ring ceremony, that would be cool. The whole point of this is that Leetcode has essentially become a de facto standardized test for many many jobs in this industry, and if we are to recognize that reality, we might as well make it DRY.
