I've been programming for 40 years, 35 of that professionally. I've built my own compilers and entire game engines and I don't think I could pass a programming test for a job interview these days. We never gave programming test for RtMI, we just talked about programming with the candidate and never got a bum hire.
@grumpygamer thanks for saying this! Coding tests are such a joke, just bc you don’t know how to do the one obscure thing they ask on the spot doesn’t mean much. Nothing you do on the job is timed/on the spot. irl you get weeks/months to google everything 😂
