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.

Don't worry about the algorithm questions... companies asking that are just google-wannabe companies that don't deserve you. I have always told recruiters "if there's a time-limited interview test, I'm out", and I'm doing very well for myself now.

If you're desperate, unfortunately, you have to pick up a book on algorithms... one of those 600 pages book, and start reading...
