>The interview process is several phone screens, a take home coding challenge, and finally an on-site interview. It has become really arduous to switch tech jobs these days. I've been spending close to 20-25hrs/job-application even before on-site interview which is another 2 days of time sink. I've used up a major chunk of my vacation this point just for tech interviews. Feel angry and powerless. Maybe next year!!

Is it because there is a large surplus of awesome candidates these, that companies can afford to make them jump through any number of hoops?

Or are software engineers, in average, getting more arrogant these days ? (_genuine_ question I've had for some time now)
