This is a damn good idea. Like almost everyone else, I don't really enjoy the leetcode grind, but it seemed like a necessary evil.
I'm currently tasked with hiring a senior data scientist and I'm dealing with figuring out the take home case study right now. Would be great if you guys did something similar that wasn't for pure CRUD apps, but also included a normal data science case study as well as included things like unit tests, enforced a PR workflow, and other MLOps tasks like quantization, A/B+regression testing, and monitoring, etc. I've been asking candidates questions about those topics for a while and it just feels pretty tricky to come up with what are fair and reasonable questions that aren't too easy and at the same time can be graded objectively.
Probably a lot to bite off for your team right now, but I'm just sitting here wishing I didn't have to come up with this case study from scratch atm, so there's my dream scenario :)
