It could be as simple as you only need to take the Leetcode exam once every ten years instead of every time you switch jobs.

I don't trust a credentialing board to vet my coworkers for me.

EDIT: i.e. I'm still going to want to interview them and have them prove to me that they can write code.

And yet, that's what we do with CoderPad, Leetcode, Karat, etc.

Yes, of course you should still interview them afterwards, I'm sure that's what credentialed professions do as well. My point is just to have the Leetcode portion be done once rather than for every company's interview.

No, but that's what I'm saying though.

I don't trust someone else, especially some credentialing body to administer leetcode style questions. I'm still going to want to have a candidate prove they can actually write code.
