I could see the point of that approach for a creativity-driven position such as designers, advertisement, marketing, or even front-end development.
For hard technical roles, where substante over style is a mandatory and very basic competence, seems to be a sure way for you to filter out all the candidates you'd be looking for.
- j-pb 4y agoIf you do backend and don't have any personal opinions about tooling, be it troff, man, pandoc, markdown, plaintext, or whatever, then there's plenty of enterprise opportunity for you, but I personally don't want to work with you. So I think that it's actually a great filter. Maybe it's slightly biased towards candidates with high confidence in their own choices and opinions, but that's a tradeoff I'm willing to make.
