That doesn't scale - what if you have 100 applicants? The leetcode will narrow down the field.
- marcus_holmes 2mo agoYeah, I've only seen it work for the last few applicants, but it did work really well. The "pick a bug and fix it" scales better, though still not to 100 applicants. Though I'd say putting 100 people through leetcode interviews would still break a talent acquisition process. I've been part of this kind of process before (though with arbitrary code problems not leetcode) and it was hell for the entire team going through it. Nothing got done for weeks while they were dragged into endless tech interviews.
