    The thing is with these design tests, is that they're actually nothing new.

    As far back as six or seven years ago, Fantasy Interactive were doing this with a stock sort of 'How would you design the next apple.com site' thing. I always thought they'd been trying to get Apple as a client, and trying to get ideas from candidates (withouth necessarily having to hire them, of course).

    Avoid these things like the plague; no reputable agency of any sort should be doing this.

    • its not agencies that are doing this though... mostly startups and tech companies.Al_dizzle
    • My experiences were restricted to tech companies exclusively. The only time I've heard of agencies doing this is for production positions.bort
