This is so true, most top companies expect folks to write flawless bug free code of problem in 20 minutes or less now. Some expect two problems in 45 minutes now (if you are unlucky really one medium and one hard). If you write a sub-optimal solution you are rejected for sure. If you haven't grinded leetcode/hackerrank and haven't seen it before there is no way you are going to solve a hard problem in 20 minutes - lets say 10 minutes to think and 10 minutes to write the code for a hard leetcode question.
