I did it once a while back for a junior job. They didn’t tell me I had to before. Then they gathered everyone into the conference room and made me present my 2 favorite pieces from my book. I thought it was strange. But I haven’t had to do it again for any other job. One place recently told me they give out “take Home test” briefs and have you present it in person at the interview
