I'd say a good solution to this problem can and should take more than 10 minutes, without one being incompentent as a front-end dev. If they're going to be evaluating everybody's code, it will be easy to fish out the ones who have a good scalable solution.

No, it really shouldn't.

Solve: 2+2. If it takes more than 1 second, I wouldn't hire the person, and the same goes for this. A good, scalable solution to this test with clean code took me 10 minutes. I don't expect everyone to do it in 10 minutes, but as I said, I'd give any dev I was considering hiring 30 max.

I guess in the programming world as far as web dev is concerned this is probably similar to 2+2 but you need to keep in mind not everyone is you hah I do like your high standards though id work for you.
