A couple of years ago I went for a development job where the tech test was to read and write data to a file. Nothing complicated, but my brain totally froze.

I'd had a couple of years off development at that point with a career side track into a non-technical role, but felt really embarrassed by not being able to do something so simple off the top of my head.

A quick Google later and it came flooding back. Didn't finish everything on the test but still got the job.
