Recruiters really out here asking senior devs with a decade of battle scars to explain red-black trees they memorized for their CS degree and promptly yeeted into the void. Like, sure Karen, let me just recall the implementation details of a skip list I learned in 2012 while I've been shipping production code using hashmaps and arrays for the past 10 years. The job posting says "5+ years experience building scalable web applications" but the interview is basically a computer science trivia night where you lose points for Googling. Pick a lane: either my years of actually solving real problems matter, or we're all just pretending experience is code for "can recite Knuth from memory."
