I'm exactly the opposite! I hated Java in school. I was going to switch careers because of it. I eventually graduated and my second job was a Java SWE. I realized it's not just you sitting in a void on a theoretical BS questions. You have a team to talk to and get help from. If you forget what a HashMap is called, you don't get stuck trying to declare a HashArray with an automatic fail grade on the same level as someone who did literally nothing and handed in literally nothing. Then I got a few years experience as a SWE and I realized my original assumption WAS correct. You are stuck in a void answering BS leetcode questions, and you DO automatically fail if you get stuck declaring a HashArray with otherwise perfect logic. Indeed, technical interviews are so fun. Especially the fully automated ones, but honestly even the ones with interactive humans they still can't comprehend how somebody could POSSIBLY mistake a HashMap as a HashArray unless you were literally fake trash.
