Same here - I keep failing the "algorithm" phone screeners.

I've been in software dev for a decade but don't have a comp sci degree and it shows a bit. Every few years when looking for a new job I stress and try to re-learn these algorithms that I only ever need to know for these interviews.

That the thing I do algorithmic stuff maybe once a year. The only time I have needed to implement a sort algorithm was for an interview.
