I sometimes interview just to stay somewhat sharp. I interview with Amazon every time they ask, which is every 6-12 months, and they actually gave me Leetcode Hard last go around in October. Usually they give me Leetcode Medium. It's always for a SWE II role so that doesn't explain the increase in difficulty. Makes sense they are being more selective ahead of layoffs though. I'm sure someone high up knew the layoffs were coming about a year in advance.
