No leetcode.

No coding challenges.

No take-home assignments.

What is the alternative?

I believe the current best practice in the Art of Hiring, is to hire based on vibes.

Obviously you can't do that publicly because it would affect the company's image, so you still need to have leetcode/coding/takehome steps to keep appearances, even if they don't contribute to the final decision.
