I don't see it as grovelling really. In my case I got hired from New Zealand to work in Germany and I guess they wanted to see that I could do what I said I could before they paid for work visas and recruiters.

I do understand that. However I feel that a coding interview is a standard practice, but building a spec project for the company is just insidious.

On the flip side, I work with some incredibly talented engineers that would laugh at this and move on to the next job application. I would too - however I feel that I'm at a point in my career where a company should want to employ me instead of me having to grovel to them.
