This post is why hiring processes suck for the company, but IMO the solutions presented here swing the pendulum too far in the other direction. Aptitude tests and work sample requirements are great, but there's some kind of ethical line crossed when you're constantly taking and taking from your applicants without giving anything back in return (e.g., meeting someone face to face).
I've been on both sides of the fence before and I know what a grueling process hiring is for both applicants and managers, so I certainly appreciate the time commitment that goes into hiring. That said, if your company wishes to present itself in a way that is caring of its employees, a great first impression would be in the hiring process.
