Can’t just be me, can it? Currently 0 for 3 on interviews because I can’t seem to get past the technical interview/test. Usually because of some crazy complicated algorithm question that’s never been relevant to anything I’ve ever had to do on the job in all my years coding.
Also, while I’m ranting: screw the usual non-answer when given feedback.
If you automatically rule out companies that either do their own coding assessments or offload them to third parties, you’d rule out most of the potential job market.
There are millions of small companies and shops that need engineering help. Many will actually talk to you like a person because they haven’t been enshuttified to death.
