Honestly after interviewing lately, I prefer Leetcode-style interviews to doing some takehome project. I’ve failed two assessments now where my project fulfilled the functional requirements set out, but I was rejected because I didn’t use their conventions (which were not specified) or they didn’t like the structure of the code. Not only that, after investing a few hours of my free time to complete said project. I just get vague, hand-wavy reasons as to why I’ve been rejected.

Leetcode-style any day, over that.
