Don’t know much about code but this seems like sound advice?

If your HR can't separate good engineers without who can jump through some proprietary website's code tests you have an HR problem.

No other industry has this mind set of forcing applicants to grind themselves. They themselves said that they have non genus $200k employees because they learned the song and dance of HR, not that they were actually $200k employment.

Not to mention 3 hours a day for 6 months? You're missing out on the best employees over the ones that memorized the answer key to the test.

3 hours a day is a pretty minimal time commitment and it isn’t saying it’s the only way it’s just stating it helps a lot.

3 hours a day with a full time job and a life after graduation? 3 hours is a huge investment. It's a half time job at 21 hours/week.

And you can not put that effort in and make 60k. It’s not required it’s optional to do better in your field and it’s a short term time investment you could also do 1 and a half hours over 12 months and yield that same results. This is purely advice to do better and stand out. Some teachers to get a small increase spend 2 years in a masters program that costs a lot of money and takes significantly more time than 3 hours a night for 6 months and that’s for a 10k salary increase.
