I just finished another interview with another company. This one takes the cake: LIVE coding.
They gave me a simple task, and gave me about 10 minutes (there was no timer), and they said that I cannot execute the code more than 1 time.
It feels sometimes that they are just messing with you. No one is testing your skills, asking you questions to know how you would think or solve a problem, which is the CORE of any developer.
I don't agree that no one is testing skills, but I do agree that you should skip that company. They made it very clear how the perceive reality. Obviously you would not enjoy that vision. Interview is always a two way street.

I miswrote there, I wanted to say some companies (not all) like the one I was talking about are not testing your skills/mind.
