&quot;Technical jobs like coding require you to demonstrate ability&quot;.<p>Yet they test you on an hour and a half online &quot;coding challenge&quot;, which is completely irrelevant to day to day work. I have been looking for a senior level job recently and only one place has actually asked me questions that I consider relevant. In another I had to calculate the inersection of two rectangles for a Django job. I managed it, but it has nothing to do with my coding ability, knowledge of Pythonic &#x2F; Django ways of doing things or anything that I would be doing on a day to day basis.
