It's an employer's market. Why would an employer want to wait 3-4 weeks for someone to interview elsewhere when there's a dozen other candidates in the pipeline?

OK - if it is “employer market” than you as a candidate can suck it up and either stay up all night and finish all three take-homes or pick 1 or 2 of the employers to interview with.

on a side note - if employer does not want to wait and wants to rush the hire chances are you don’t want to work there anyways…

I disagree with the assertion of “rushing the hire” right now.

Nobody in their right mind is waiting on 1 candidate for several weeks to maybe hear from them unless there aren’t other good options.

And unless you’re notorious and exceptional, there are a lot of good options in the stack of resumes right now.
