After years of software experience i have done more copy and pasting, implementing protocols, fixing old school ui threading issues, troubleshooting rare and hard to find bugs... never leetcoding. and not a single interviewer has ever targeted these skills properly.
The coding tests are specifically designed to hire only recent graduates of computer science. My education was electronics engineering so specifically did not have much "algorithm specific" training (too bad hiring managers have no idea how to change their expectations based on that)
I usually just get underhired in technician and production roles and end up running the entire IT/technical/engineering of small companies in a couple years.No interviewer has ever showed interest in this either.
