A confession of a FAANG hiring manager

So your solution is take home coding. How is doing an assignment for every company I apply for better than practising coding questions that can be used in interviews at any company?

At Aserto we recognize this problem and address it by offering candidates a choice. They can either take a take-home assignment, or opt for a whiteboard style interview question. This approach lets us meet candidates where they're most comfortable and removes a degree of bias from our interview results.

I think that's a great approach - do you have any interest in sharing the overall interview process? I run a job board for companies that don't do LeetCode interviews and could get Aserto added to it!
