My advice: don't quit. And don't stress too much about what you learned in undergrad or whatever. I learned a lot in undergrad and grad school -- very little of which translates to my day-to-day work. Don't worry about phone screens either. Like dating, it's a numbers game. Give the answers you think are good solutions, and if they disagree, then that's possibly a hint that you're not a good fit. In my experience (as both an interviewee and an interviewer), the ones who focus on algorithmic questions are missing the point. There's a lot more to being a good developer than memorizing algorithms.
Anyway, don't give up. :)
