I agree with you that interviews which incorporate a larger project that takes multiple hours are usually a waste of time. Usually the project turns out to be too unfocused and too subjectively judged to provide useful information about the candidates. I spent four hours on one once where the only feedback I got was that my solution “wasn’t object oriented enough.”
