We may be past the point of leetcode challenges, but now different companies have different levels of acceptance for AI assistance.
One data point talked about technical interviews where a candidate was interrupted and asked to lean on the LLM more.
Some companies have shied away from AI and any indication or disclosure of AI assistance is a red flag.
Other companies continue to test coding abiltiy as a baseline expectation and do allow LLMs purely for boilerplate or autocomplete.
Follow up: does your company's AI guidelines for interview candidates align with the guidelines for employees?
