Exactly - LeetCode, system design, behavioral interview - you can prepare for it.

I was interviewing for the last few months and got plenty of LeetCode Hard questions. Was designing a time-series database at least three times. And talking about a situation when I had a conflict with my colleague at least five times :-)

gameable != trivial, these companies are looking for reasons not to hire you. I would say Amazon has the most structured interviews out of the FAANGS (probably the easiest but they are also the fastest to let people go, maybe FB is close), apple is more about fit.
Agreed it isn't trivial but neither is it impossible. Also agree that Amazon is probably the easiest to prep for once you understand the behavioral aspect.
