it probably depends on the role and team. to say they don’t have leetcode style interviews at any stage for any candidate is “simply not true”

- nice_byte 4y agoI mean, they do ask algorithmic problems, but first, they're not "leetcode hard" (leetcode hards can get just insane, it's impractical to ask those in an interview setting), more like mediums, and second - out of 6 or 7 interviews maybe 2-3 will be those. Domain-specific / system design ones are more important. Though that depends on the level they're hiring for, I imagine fresh grads get more "write code on whiteboard" types of questions.
- tempsy 4y agothe claim was that they don’t do leetcode questions, not that they do easy and medium ones but not hard ones.
- loeg 4y agoBoth upthread claims specifically say "hards," which is not true in the last few years. (In fact, LC "hards" are explicitly proscribed.) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33025666 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33025666 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33025573 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33025573
