What you've just described sounds like the exact opposite of a rigorous, objective, work sample based hiring approach.
What you've just described sounds like the exact opposite of a rigorous, objective, work sample based hiring approach. Crappy companies have crappy hiring processes. It sucks to deal with that. When we started doing work sample hiring, we put a process in place to handle many applicants, make sure we were responsive, and work people through the funnel as efficiently as we could. I don't think it's possible to take advantage of it any other way. We got complimented several times on how reasonable the process was (by people we turned down!). This both made me feel good, and caused me existential "the world is broken" sadness. It's not a high bar to be decent to people.
