> Not every job requires Leetcode practice.

In The Netherlands, most jobs don't.

Isn't it pretty much everywhere doesn't require leetcode, except the US?

UK, Aus, and NZ definitely don't unless its with some American company.

All the well paying companies in London require it, including finance and startups.

Well paying vs normal paying. I am simply happy to have a job. I feel people are too focused on a well paid job when it comes to the whole leetcode thing. I get it, but there are normal paying jobs, so you don’t have to do it.

I'm in London, can you name these companies? I'm earning 150k GBP a year at the moment (average senior/lead as I understand is about 80 or 90?), and have interviewed at a bunch of other companies with the same level. Interviews I get are all about experience, and coding problems that are related to software engineering and not computer science.
