Not true. I've interviewed for and landed several nice gigs since then. But as I said in that other post, always skipping the tech screen piece.

From talking with other devs in my peer group, this doesn't seem uncommon.

I think it's "uncommon", but I also think that one shouldn't confuse "uncommon" with "never happens". I've had more than one job land on my doorstep without some sort of crazy tech screen. But I also talk to front-door companies on occasion too.
