Can someone help me understand - CodeSubmit gives candidates take home coding assignments? Isn't that what coding tests are anyway mostly?

What's the alternative - coding assignments done in the employers office?

Hi Andrew - with CodeSubmit we are trying to improve the take-home coding assignment process for both the candidates and hiring managers. The alternative to something like CodeSubmit is in most cases a home grown process that involves a lot of back and forth, emails, public repositories, and spreadsheets. Our customers prefer seeing short real work samples of their candidates instead of leetcode-style algorithmic heavy candidate filters.

I'm happy to walk you through the product and give you a short demo if you're interested, email is in my profile.
