I agree, 2 weeks is too much. I've seen most programming rounds to last somewhere between 1-3 hours max. If it goes beyond that, then I assume it's more of "build something" kind of test.

If they're giving you an assignment that takes more than a day then it's work, and you can ask "how much do you pay me for this".

Yeah, some of them have offered to pay too!
