Our interview has almost zero traditional algorithms. And no, he’s not exaggerating. I’ve been interviewing people for a decade now and neither experience or pedigree is a good predictor of success.

College kids often just took an algorithms course. Experienced devs have to brush up on this stuff to jump through the hoops while also managing their day job and any other commitments.

We don't really do an "Algorithms and Data structures" interview, our interview questions are modeled after real world problems we face(d).

I'll wager doing well in interviews isn't a good predicator of success either.

In our interview it is because it’s modeled after the real world as opposed to LARPing computer science.
