Its just so different talking while being judged by people you dont know, throws things off. I bombed a few last time, one in particular where I was writing a switch statement. They wanted me to use a map. They asked what if the cases kept growing and... it didnt occur to me to use a map.
Im sure i looked like a novice. But in my day to day code... i flip between maps and conditionals and switch statements all the time, with ease. Its natural. But while interviewing? It just doesn't come out of me.
