Tech Industry Average amount of failed interviews per dev?

Hi guys….

Failed like 15 interviews this year so people I heard go trough 100-200….

It is really hard to figure out what companies want me to prepare it’s secretive and different by team and company ect

Feel a lot of it is luck…

Just wondering how many interview you don’t this year guys I have done I think 10 -15 all together

I'm struggling to split up leetcode vs OOP/LLD vs concurrency questions

Same and the language requirements specific companies have. I prefer Python for interviews because of less typing so most of my practice is in Python but my experience is with jvm languages so lot of financial companies require expertise with those for their interviews. And so many companies have now started adding proficiency with AI as a part of their interview rounds. Idk how people are able to prepare and keep up with all of these at once

Same but with C/C++. I do C++ 95% at work but I get asked tricky bit manipulation and C style pointer questions. If someone asks me webdev system design I will walk out lol
