LeetCode emphasizes the wrong thing. I can appreciate that you need some basic questions to see if people can code at all, but you can achieve this with questions that don’t require leetcode prep and studying up on algorithms.
What’s far more important is candidates ability to learn, grow and adapt to new challenges. Their personality and how they work on teams is also important.
LLMs are changing things too. I consider myself more of a backend developer. However, I am currently building a front end application using react. Using a LLM has really helped me with setting up my project and getting used to syntax and concepts more quickly. I could have learned this on my own, but AI helped me pick up this task quickly. What specific skills you have currently is less important than your ability to learn and adapt.
