A few years ago I decided to never do these algorithm, fizz buzz and whatever tests again in order to get a job. These tests have almost nothing to do with my daily work as a software developer.
With very much ease I can ask the interviewer/dev to solve a seemingly simple algorithm, where I'm almost 100% sure he will fail, even if I'd gave him 6 hours to solve it.
I've seen so much horrible code in my life, there is no fizz buzz test that can prevent you from that. I am wary of companies doing these tests as it tells me they have no clue what my work is about.
If a company wants to hire me they can look at some of my production code and the live results of it. If that is not good enough for them I'm not interested.
