Take-homes are being replaced by 60-minute live coding interviews with two engineers watching. Senior developers are publicly pushing back. Here's what that format actually measures — and what you can do instead.

Developers are spending hours on take-home tests and hearing nothing back. The data shows this silence is costing employers their best candidates — and their reputation.

80% of candidates now use AI on coding tests. Banning it does not work, and ignoring it is reckless. Here is how brief-driven, real-project assessment reveals genuine capability regardless of which tools were used.
