Since I'm not participating in leet code style interviews, no not really. Most interviews just develop into a conversation and I'm comfortable having conversations about technology and systems and methodology without prep. Any prep I do would be to learn more about the folks in the interview loop rather than brushing up on any particular topics. I don't think this is good general advice, especially for positions where you're still primarily hands on code, but has worked quite well for me.
It's also very helpful to not be applying via public HR processes. Warm intros to specific teams / leadership makes everything so much easier. Pay attention to where former teammates / leaders are moving to. They can make excellent leads to new opportunities assuming they would be happy to work with you again.
