Had Google On-site today, and got asked all Leetcode Hards in my coding rounds. I was under the impression that we are all past asking LC Hards in interviews. Is this even expected anymore? TC 400, Interviewing for L5

What happens when most of your team is Indian?
each interviewer decides, can make up their own too. u goin for generic swe or something specialized?
Specialized, which makes it even more bizarre that the coding rounds were all Hards
what kind? ML? some specialized go domain-specific, others go hard
I got one east and 2 mediums, I solved but when they added or asked for more optimization, I couldnāt do much.
How many YOE did you have when you applied
5
Yoe?
7
L5s have usually higher bar even for coding. So hard questions are not uncommon in Google interviews.
Interesting
What level questions could someone with 1.5 YOE expect?
Were the questions from LC?
Asking the right q.
Yes
Itās probably your TC, they know you are earning more than them :)
Lol
1 med, 3 hards (2 using dp) for me. Is this about average difficulty?
Seems similar
L4 with 2 hards for me š¤¬like pleaseā¦ I thought we were past this phase of interviewing culture
Your yoe?
2.5
L3 NG got 1 too easy to be easy (5 easy follow-up) 1 tagged Medium + 1 tagged Hard 1 modified Dijkstra (not on LC but I think is hard) 1 low level design which requires segment tree for optimal (Hard) I think it all depends on interviewer and luck
Did u get an offer?
I passed the onsite after doing an additional round.
How many YOE?
