Why is it people with kids can handle a 2-3 hours long interview on-site + travel that probably required taking time off work but can't handle a 4 hours assignment that they can do whenever?
I don't have kids, but I feel like solo coding comes out of a different pool of mental energy (more introverted, flow state) that I only have so much of. If I do a take-home for a potential employer, it's likely taking it out of the energy I have for my current one
Interviews where you're discussing your history or even coding challenges are different. I don't know what it is about having another person there to bounce things off of and explain the process, but it doesn't feel as exhausting.
