That's all fine and dandy but the HR recruiter that can't tell apart git from grunt needs to cross boxes in the skills assessment section, and if you don't ace coding challenges you are as good as dead to them.
Why are you applying to that soulless shitshack??
If you automatically rule out companies that either do their own coding assessments or offload them to third parties, you'd rule out most of the potential job market.
There are millions of small companies and shops that need engineering help. Many will actually talk to you like a person because they haven't been enshuttified to death.
STOP WORKING FOR THESE GIANT HELLHOLES.
