I'm working as a sde in non-faang with 1.8 yoe.
I applied for more than 50+ positions in Amazon and Microsoft through LinkedIn but no response whatsoever!

I mentioned my skills, projects and work experience in my resume but did not mention anything about competitive programming at all.

In some posts many are advising to just leetcode all day... but how do I get an interview by leetcoding? how does the interviewer know that I have been leetcoding? Although I have solved only few problems(10) in leetcode, I have solved 200+ problems in hackerrank and codeforces. Should I give more priority to leetcode than any other competitive programming site? I'm looking for a job change in the next 3 months, please advice me on how to get an interview from FAANG and what should I include in my resume?

Thanks a lot!

    The only time I have ever gotten an interview at FAANG was a recruiter DMing me or referral.

    This only started working for me after 3yoe in non-fang company.
