Not joking. I've been grinding Leetcode for 3 years. Solved 350 problems at this point. Arrays, DP, graphs, you name it. I went through 20+ interviews recently, junior level dev to mid level dev, and I can count on one hand how many times I actually got asked Leetcode style questions. Most of it was: * past experience deep dives * system design * online debugging I feel like wasted lots of time on Leetcode. Don't get me wrong, Leetcode probably helped my thinking, but ROI feels kinda questionable now. Curious -- is this just bad luck, or are interviews shifting away from Leetcode? https://preview.redd.it/13zruel6i4ug1.png?width=976&format=png&auto=webp&s=69e05087000ef2e8edfe581025baf03f1cc482ed
