I applied for a job that wanted someone who has experience with SAML. I've actually written my own hobby IDP, and I can diagram the handshake off the top of my head. I've spent a lot of time learning how to write custom decorators to handle access restrictions. I failed my interview because they wanted me to leetcode some shit with 3d geometric volumes. I'm sorry but what does this have to do with SAML or security?

Wow that's dumb. I've done some reading on 3d computational geometry for hobbyist game engine reasons, and in my admittedly limited experience, very few of the algorithms involved are intuitive enough to be derivable in an interview setting.

This sucks -- it is a lose-lose situation. I've seen this kind of thing happen all too often.

You interview them as well. You give me dumb, unrelated coding questions - you are out.
