A 10hr tech task is a joke

Max 2 hours or you see an increase in candidates unwilling to complete the task

No, if you have that many applications you should have a team of people across TA/recruitment who are capable of filtering candidates and not sending that many through to your 10 hour tech task

Not true for most companies. I work exclusively in tech recruitment and the majority of talent we attract is passive i.e. have not applied directly.

A company like Bungie probably gets a slightly higher than average active applicant rate but even then it’s incredibly unlikely to ever be in a situation where (for 1 singular hire) you have 10 candidates you want to see a tech task from

An increasing number of companies have completely scrapped tech tasks too, therefore the people willing to sit through a 10 hour tech task are more desperate for the opportunity or are die hard Bungie fans (less likely)

Well I submitted, might be too late, but some of the spices sound mouthwatering, I'd probably use it on chicken because well, Zebras love chicken.

1)How much research do you put into the spice mixes? Did you constantly make small samples then cook/taste the food?

2)How many failed attempts would you say you go through before you find on that you like?

Also. Ninjas rock :p

What would you recommend learning and doing at school and at home to possibly open up this career path for myself? If it helps I already do art
