The commenter doesn't appear to understand the economics of the job-seeking candidate; it's about time & effort to keep your current job and the cost of getting hired at a bad company. I cannot give every company I apply at hours of coding if I apply to dozens of jobs. I can't give every company a half-day assessment. I can't get hired easily and then get fired easily. I can't invest weeks of work from myself on non-ideal potentials. I know this means I pass on great jobs and that really sucks and is totally unfair. I'm sure that's happened to me as well. The problem is that nothing presented here is a better alternative.
