I'd consider writing a json parser in 20 min a tough challenge for anyone. Also being good at algos is not the only way to get hired. I for one am terrible at them and mostly do fine in interviews :) The most important thing I've found to getting hired is to have your "story" down pat. Every time you are in an interview and you get asked a question you don't have a good answer for, make a note of it. When you get home sit down and compose an answer to that question in writing. Rehearse it. Repeat. As for tech challenges, the number one most important thing to remember is they want to see how you think. They also want to see how you react under stress. No matter how tough or unreasonable the challenge is. Just take a deep breath and try. You'd be shocked at how often that gets you points with the interviewer. Finally, most junior roles I see are (for whatever reason) front end heavy. Your vue experience is great but it would give you more options if you added React to your tool belt. Dunno. Just a thought.
