I recently tried for the second time to apply to some agency type place. I have 10yrs of coding, worked with big data, have done micro coding( developed protocols for vending machine transactions), done frontend and backend small and large scale.
But this place had 3 of these type of challenges that you had 1hr 30mins to complete all of them. I'm sorry, most of this stuff you will NOT find in any job unless its some specialty. For an backend/angular/react developer you will not find this at all. I feel that companies that do this are out of touch with the correct way to find candidates. But on the second hand I also see why they do this since programming has became so much popular now a days.
In the same way that nobody ever got fired for suggesting IBM, I imagine there's a lot of HR / tech hiring apeing MS/Google/FB. Even if it makes no sense in their business development context.
