YES EXACTLY.

I keep myself in the interviewing loop at my company because I actually enjoyed the process when I joined. It was conversations over “executable” solutions. Now, we kick out so many candidates that can’t get a coded, running solution in the 45 minute slot.

I have tried so many times to explain the WILD asymmetry going on. That for us, we just have to interview the next candidate. To them, they have the enormous pressure of “if I can’t do this exercise then I have no income, no health insurance, no security.”

That’s unfair.
