Are you sure Leetcode is that important?

I've been a software engineer for 10+ years, I did very little Leetcode. This year I switched jobs and did a bit of Leetcode before. A bit, like 10 exercises.

I don't see myself investing years into becoming better at Leetcode to bring it in balance with my software engineering skills. Am I missing out on better opportunities because of this? 🤔

Thanks

Though I am also not against a fine balance. I touched on that in my article.

I read your article. That completely made sense but I am not sure how many companies will be flexible with it, especially for new grad and engineers with less experience

As long as big tech is not in picture, there are a lot many companies that do so, and interview without leetcode for every level.
