I think this is what got the ball rolling in the wrong direction
I dont think what they were asking was out of line for a devops engineer.
Fizzbuzz and algorithms are out of place for devops, but sounds like you did better than most anyway
Sounds like you are more ops than dev though, and their version of devops is more dev than ops.
Either fits the definition, but I think the industry is trending towards the latter. Infrastructure as code and automated pipelines all the way to prod are becoming standard now.
BUT that disconnect is not really your fault, this is why there are supposed to be pre-screens and at least published job descriptions.
The recruiter sounds like he/she was shit, just like cat breath usually smells like cat food.
When prepping for the interview I always prep against the job description, which sounds like you didnt have so going into a 7 person panel interview blind sounds like about one of the worst possible scenarios.
