If the employer had a policy that they would not provide feedback for their take home assignments, would you still complete the take home assignment?
Also, I'm wondering whether we could create a separate post or a subreddit where we can do reviews of take home assignment if the employer refused to do so? Would that be useful to any of you?
I'd go find a different employer. Unless they are gonna pay for the time to do said take home assignment? Double time min for out-of hours work. Are they going to provide a RDO to makeup for the outside of hours work/shift going overtime? It's unsafe to operate without enough sleep and if ive banged out 8 hours on some assignment after a 8 hour day you better believe im not turning up tomorrow. I'm not making myself liable for unsafe operations just for your incapacity to hire enough people to get a job done in allocated working hours.
Note. I doubt I would complete a take home assignment that is not clearly generic and given to every candidate.
I would likely refuse to complete one that was extensive or complex enough that feedback was expected or required.
I would certainly never complete one I thought was directly related to the business and what they were looking for was free consulting.
