Is it just me, or is this an insane amount of work to ask a candidate

The task is easy especially if they let you use any front-end framework for MVVM/MVC/etc.

The actual work is all that modeling shit at the bottom, it separates the codemonkeys from the people who know how to formalize and work properly in a professional environment

To clarify further, point 2 is easy as it pretty much encapsulates the work you need for the tast, point 3 is laughably easy if you've done any querying, point 1 is work

If you are getting paid why not

The wireframes (point 1) take a shitload of time. There are a lot of requirements listed and a lot of things you must consider. There is making the questions, searching for employees to review you, leaving a review, viewing a list of reviews, viewing the details of a review, etc.

The ERD (point 2) I would argue takes a long ass time as well because you have to think super hard about how to normalize the relationship between different properties such as question bank, users, review request, etc.

You are not paid to do this task, at most this task rewards you a video interview with the team.

It seems like a lot of work, but on the other hand, if it seems like a lot of work, at least you get a chance to demonstrate you are better than a Pajeet.

If the job seems worth it, why not?

>getting desperate coders to do work for free
>THE JOB INTERVIEW

I would reply with a time/cost estimate and deposit amount to start the job.

Even if I was desperate, they would NEVER get the work in their hands. They could look at my notebook screen in an interview. No copies provided.

Companies are free to do this shit if they want to, and candidates are free to ignore it and move on to the next interview if they want. Ultimately this type of thing probably means the company will miss out on devs who know what they are worth and won't jump through these hoops for free, but on the other hand they'll probably always find at least a few people actually willing to do this just for the chance.

I kind of feel the same way. This company makes HR software, so it is possible that they can just take my work and use it for free if they find it to be good enough. I wish I did respond with an hourly rate, that would be hilarious and would probably make a good point to them and what they should consider as their HR screening.

seriously do this

if the manager is smart they'll realize you have business sense and hire you

if the manager is dumb and just wants free work from autistic coders then he won't see the value in your skillset and pass- either way I don't think it's somebody you want to work for
