After realizing that even as a moderately competent junior-mid-level developer my fitness for interview problems drops drastically as soon as I'm employed.

Studying algorithms reminds me of my most hated classes in college, mostly because my professor had no interest in teaching and was really only there for his research...

However, I still have no clue how to keep my interview-foo top notch while not freaking out about trying to get a job as well. I still can't believe friends of mine can line up 5-7 interviews in the course of a week and then get offers from 60% of them on their first try.
