> I realized this when I got a lot better at whiteboard interviews after a FAANG job for a couple years. A coding challenge that I took the full hour on and bombed out of college was now done in twenty. I just picked up the problem solving intuition by writing a ton of code.

Were you perchance interviewing others while at FAANG or doing anything related to interviewing (speaking with coworkers about it, etc.)? I've seen plenty of people come out of FAANG worse at interviewing than they went in.

The problems I've heard most of my peers solve at FAANG are not really that relevant to interviewing. At least, none of them are like, "Yeah, man, totally kick ass at leetcode now that I've been at Facebook for a year!"
