Got an amazing offer to Google.
This site is amazing.. I found so much information here, interview prep, leetcode, which books to read, interview process at each company, experiences, etc. also shoutout to rooftop slushie which was surprisingly helpful when I was preparing for specific interviews and negotiating salary.

300 and google is really awesome.
Did about 300 LC [20/50/30]
I ended up getting leetcode premium
Some good tips for approaching leetcode: I eased into it with lc easy, put a lot of weight on medium and try to challenge myself with hard. If you can't solve a problem, don't look at the answer. Skip it and work on another one. I'll come back to the question and give it another try. Try to look for hints. If you still can't answer, look at the answer. Come back to the question again a month later and give it another try. Before you look at any answers, always remember to try it first.
Read Cracking the Coding Interview and Computer Science Distilled. Also took Grokking the System Design Interview course. Watched a ton of cs-related youtube videos in my spare time.
After getting LC out of the way, I wanted to get an idea of what the criteria was. I foudn a hiring manager on rooftop slushie. They took a look at my resume and gave me a referral. I also got some help regarding the behavioral portion, things like what they're looking for, what qualities I should present, and what kind of personal experiences to bring up.
After applying, I did 3 mock interviews before the real thing.
I did 300+ to get my Amazon gig as I was out of college for 3+ years and has forgotten the basics but I’ll keep this in mind!
Thanks again for sharing your insight!
