OriginalGriff lives in Wales - the only part where the sheep aren't nervous.
OriginalGriff once wrote a simulator with a rounding error. That's why Pi is no longer 3.0.
OriginalGriff knows why it is 42
That'll do for now - we wouldn't want to embarrass him
well, OK
OriginalGriff had a dodgy keyboard -which is why Queue is spelled that way.
OriginalGriff's name comes from an anagram of 'Oral Frig If Gin' which harkens back to a best-forgotten night with Nagy

The morning after Carl Sagan said that there were "billions and billions" of stars, Griff called him up and told him the exact number - he had counted them during commercial breaks.

I recently was approached by an intermediary firm on behalf of another company looking for Android developers. They asked me to do a code challenge and post the source code to GitHub, which I did. About 1-2 weeks later, they asked me to do another code challenge for the prospective client/employer at their request. I've never been asked to do more than one code challenge for a prospective contract/job.
How many of you have been asked to do multiple code challenges for a prospective job? This seems a bit strange to me. The code challenges are not major projects. However they are the kind that would take a full day to complete so they aren't completely trivial either. I'm trying to find out how common this is and whether or not I should assume that the prospective client/employer isn't really serious and is just "kicking the (my) tires" by asking for multiple code challenges.

No. I've only been asked to do very simple things. One I remember is...
Given two strings, determine if one is a rotation of the other, e.g. "houseboat" and "boathouse".
My solution is a one-liner.

I would assume they are trying to get me to work a day for free, and I won't do that.

I may be a bit jaded, but this sounds like a company trying to get some free stuff at your expense. Either that, or they have one or two other applicants who posted some promising work, and want to sort among you for the best. I'd go along with it one more time, but if you're asked for a third round, I'd demand a seance with the principals before complying.
