This sounds great to me. I've always hated the song and dance interviews.

Exactly, In my opinion every company should start doing Paid work Trials instead of interviews and so called assignments.

I don't see this taking off for experienced job interviewers. Who has the time to take off a week or two for every job they apply to?

It certainly wouldn't work for me at all. For one thing, it would mean I could only pursue one job opportunity at a time, which is too great of a disadvantage to tolerate.

Fortunately, it's very unlikely that this would become a widespread practice so I can just ignore companies that require this.

As with most proposed innovations in job interviewing, this would disproportionately attract desperate people with limited options.
