No you can't. Because the real difficulty is not bullshit leetcode questions, but professionalism, ability to handle pressure, requirements collection and research, soft skills, design, etc. you can't interview for those.

You build these skills by writing good software under constraints not by building personal pet projects and farming leetcode.

People can do leetcode AND all the things you talk about. Or do you really think engineers at companies who ask leetcode are all bad at their jobs?

> you can't interview for those

Also yes you absolutely can!
