Thanks so much for sharing this experience. Your point regarding the gap between tech interview questions and IRL applications is a very good one. I feel pretty sure that in passing you up due to this gap, this company missed out on hiring a developer who would have added a great deal of value to their team. IRL experience > "dog-and-pony show" any time. Best wishes as you continue your search for the company that deserves you!
Thank you Stephanie for your time and kindness! The "dog and pony shows" create a disconnect that marginalize a great number of good devs. Nonetheless, we have to learn to clear these "jumps and hurdles" to reach our goals. Thanks again
