I guess people get scarred both ways. I've certainly been on 20+ hour interview processes that have left me with an awful offer at the end which I just could not take. Personally, I've never been a part of a company where the code test isn't: 1) Short (1 hour) 2) On their own time 3) A real problem (algorithms are OK in my mind as long as you help them with the core problem) I do not expect everyone to know every algorithm... I guess it is kinda weird if you do not know Dijkstra's algorithm, but I only think it is weird because the courses I took focused heavily on it and similar algorithms. But, do I want you to know all the same stuff I know? No, definitely not. I don't want 2 of me I want me and someone else that works well with me but ultimately has their own ideas.
