There could be an argument made that most code interviews have a bias twords younger less experienced developers. They are the ones that take the time and study these questions. Years of experience probably won't help since the questions don't represent day to day problems most developers are solving.
- mmcru 4y agoI interview at FAANG and we do take this into account by holding pretty much anyone over ~2 years of experience to the same standard with respect to leetcode questions. A fresh grad is expect to be able to solve ~medium problems. Someone with ~2 years of experience is expected to be able to solve ~hard problems. Someone with 10 or 20 years of experience is still only expected to be able to solve ~hard problems. The standards for a more experienced candidate are of course higher for other attributes: Leadership skills, communication skills, etc.
- postalrat 4y agoWould you suggest someone with 10-20 years of experience to practice and learn how to solve leetcode problems? Or just expect them to be able to solve them without any prior exposure? And if you would suggest they learn them what would that person be gaining that they lacked before?
