Every now and then in HN the topic of interviews come up, and usually bashing DS&A interviews.
As someone who failed around 8 interviews (combined phones + onsites) for FAANG/Unicorns I am still a supporter of DS&A interview. I finally now work in one of the FAANG/Unicorns, after solving around 400 Leetcode questions.
For those who are against DS&A questions, tell me how you as a company that wants to interview candidates, can afford to interview as many as possible as fair as possible as straightforward as possible as little time possible and everyone having equally strong skill set? You can't hire them all. You can only hire few ones but reject the others. Without some x metrics that can be seen easily you'll get into trouble rejecting other candidates.
