Contractors have to do the leetcode monkey dance for prospects?

Depends what kind of “jobs” you apply to.

If you’re selling a specific service then no, kinda like how you pick a doctor.

But if it’s to apply for a regular coding job except you’re not on the payroll but « independent » then yes it’s exactly like a regular job interview. It just pays 2x but the process is just as shitty.
