They definitely did when I did a loop a few years ago. Maybe things changed or you got lucky?


Maybe? 2020 for me. The first wave had me write code to solve a problem.... pretty far from Amazon's rebranded HackerRank/Leetcode nonsense. I was talking to a human being the entire time. They were great about making me feel like they WANTED me to succeed. Next round was more conversational/System Design stuff.


I think you're confused, when people say "they ask leetcode questions" they don't mean they do automated tests

The questions the human is asking you come from a big question bank and a lot of it is listed on LeetCode under the meta company tag because people leak them.

People use Leetcode to practice for those interviews, they don't use the leetcode site in the interview


I guess I am just saying I didn't feel like herded cattle like I did with Amazon's automated leetcode/hackerrank rebranded system.

I mean, now I'm just here to watch the downvotes pile on....


IDK why this is so contentious for folks, it probably varies by team, role, or something else.
