Honest question: People always joke about this, but is it really so widespread? I only had one job interview in my life until now, and that did not have any tech questions because my CV and open-source portfolio made it reasonably clear that I can, in fact, write working programs.

In Europe, it is mostly the cool startups that think they are in Silicon Valley that ask for fizzbuzz, tree balancing algorithms, optimization algorithms for HD access and such.

Most business do ask for technical questions, but more like how do the UML diagram of some architecture, how to write SQL queries, implement some code to make their unit tests green, describe what is virtual method dispatch and so on.
