Most interview processes I've been through (many, 15 year veteran) involve both the leetcode crap and at least one fit/culture/soft skills round.

Which is insufficient in terms of technical tests.

The fit/culture/soft skills/ is actually a fall back to "where did you go to college and tell me about how good you are", which was the pre-leetcode standard.

It is a downgrade in my opinion.

I've had good and bad soft skills interviews. They're harder to get right than tech interviews.
