Paid take home assignments are the best in my experience.

If someone asks for it, we pay for their time. And we offer to get a sense of how they can code however they want. Take home, virtual pair coding, in-officce pair coding or coding exercises, whatever you want. We just need to see you code in a timeboxed way so we can see how you solve problems and see the results to make sure you write readable, maintainable code.

Almost everyone picks take home. Like, over 95%. I'm not sure why people here are complaining about it except that the accounts that are were made 2021+ so maybe it's a generational thing.
