Why are you having people do some sort of CTF challenge to even apply?

>>canaus+685
we get a lot of volume and this helps us quickly identify people that are a) strongly motivated and b) strong candidates

>>bevacq+Qb5
But you also deter the strongest candidates because you are not considerate of their time which also gives the wrong impression of the culture at Ramp. Requiring a challenge that could take x amount of hours to complete on a very slim chance that person would get hired is very inconsiderate. There is no incentive. Not everyone who is looking for a job is straight out of college, unmarried and/or don't have other responsibilities. Just because a candidate chooses not to do this challenge doesn’t mean that person wouldn’t be “strongly motivated” or a “strong candidate” to work for you. That’s why proper interview processes exist to sort out those individuals. If you want to limit the amount of “volume”, I would suggest considering other methods or not hire at all. I would assume that the fact I see job postings everywhere for Ramp, including here, and the fact that you require this challenge, must mean you are getting little “volume” of applicants.
