seeing all of this "leetcode" stuff you guys gotta go through has me terrified to ever interview for a SE position again. i hope i never get laid off <_<

not all companies require that kinda stuff, TC. i sometimes help my boss interview candidates and she / we never ask about that kinda stuff. being able to solve an algorithm quickly and under pressure is not what makes for a good team engineer, IMO. it's more about your ability to learn and how well you communicate and work with others, at least at the junior level. unfortunately not all employers feel this way. good luck!

also, if you reddit check out /r/cscareerquestions for advice and information
Trust me, I know all about how bullshit leetcode is. And I definitely know that there are some companies that don't put an emphasis on them. My goal here is to make sure my future and career path looks good. The company I'm at right now is small. I'm looking for a medium to well known company for resume purposes, such that when it's time to leave, I don't have to worry about companies not choosing me. And I can settle wherever Iwant. My end goal is to get a comfortable job, make decent money, and live life. This doesn't have to be at a large company.

Also appreciate the reddit link, I scour that subreddit anyways lol.
