Well, I politely declined the next stage when I heard it was a brain teaser round. I don't really seem to do well in brain teasers. I don't at all get a kick out of puzzles that aren't a means to an end. Does anybody else have that feeling?

What gets me is the numerous companies that expect you to do this, or take a day or two to build a mini project before even getting the chance to speak to anyone technical about the job.

A brain teaser? Like a puzzle? Or do you mean a coding interview?

Brain teasers haven't been asked in years AFAIK.

The term brain teaser was used explicitly. It would have been something data science/statistics related.
