The problem has become that a lot of kids coming out of college have done little more than memorize Leetcode problems and outsourced classwork to AI
I’m pretty senior and I memorise a bank of leetcode solutions if I’m going for an interview that is definitely leet code. It has served me well for some interviews, and will remain my top strategy. I can still solve problems on the spot when needed, and much prefer challenging non leetcode programming problems, but that is far and few between.
