Because you want to minimize friction. They already have a job so they don't really need you. You want them to want you, and making them jump through your hoops

Because you want to minimize friction. They already have a job so they don't really need you. You want them to want you, and making them jump through your hoops (one way or the other) is alienating.

Even without the evaluation signal coding exercises give you (one could argue that it's hard to make it representative of actual work), I think there is a correlation between someone who will spend a couple hours working on a coding problem to demonstrate their skill and the kind of person you want to hire.
