Interesting post, but I did have one concern. The success is measured as likelihood to land a role, not likelihood to be successful in that role. Therefore couldn’t this data imply that the companies placing the candidates have a bias towards hiring candidates that excel at timed coding, rather than candidates that would eventually excel in their roles?
