I think it really depends on how and where you get referred. Bigger companies are likely to be process heavy and inflexible.
My last three interviews and job moves have all been from referrals or old colleagues. None had coding challenges and all resulted in job offers. But that was a small satellite team for a big org and two early stage startups.
It’s also a consequence of timing and luck though. I’d definitely be prepping harder for job hunting.
- decafninja 6y agoI've gotten lots of referrals from old colleagues and bosses, but as the previous poster has said, all that has resulted in is opening the door to an leetcode interview. Also timeframe is significant too. I'd say 5-10 years ago, fewer companies (especially outside the tech industry) were leetcoding candidates. Now, many of those same companies (including my current) are all leetcoding candidates.
