That seems... limiting. Are you sure you want to specialize that much, and rule out doing any programming that does require understanding something about algorithms?

I do know algorithms, it's just that I don't use it in my day to day activities. When confronted with an online challenge with time constraints I seem not to cope since I hardly use algos in my day to day automation it isn't right on top of my fingertips!

Without time constraints I am able to solve the problems.

Timed Algo assessments are very similar to exams u write in universities.. u need to keep practicing to complete those assessments in time and get a "pass mark".
