I am far from being a code goddess, but applied for a coder/customer service position at a game company recently. The game teaches people to code, and while again am not proficient (been out of practice as where I work does not really allow coding outside of work) I did okay on the test. But they didn’t hire me...because I didn’t ace the test...just on the coding part. But this is a job...where the job teaches people to code. Stands to reason, I am going to get proficient in short order, just working there. Logically made no sense to me, lol.
edited to add-I did get to see where I was lacking and working to improve and was so happy to see I had not forgotten everything in the 5 plus years I haven’t been able to code.

For ExamPro I want our hiring process to be that you use our platform to learn to program on our stack and you're hired. Sounds a bit similar.
