If I were an employer, I would want at least one code sample. I would give candidates options and always allow up to three redos. So, dev can do take home or live, whatever type of problem they prefer (realistic or algorithm). I would always structure the problem to allow for anybody to solve it, but allow for a range of more complete answers. I would always provide the problem ahead of time for live interviews. I would let developer decide on what is within scope in terms of language features and libraries that the problem can require. I would just want some short demo of how someone programs.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Strongly agree
