AI kills LeetCode-style coding interviews, Yuchen Jin says

AIYuchen Jin says he is glad AI has killed LeetCode-style coding interviews, and that young AI talent he has spoken with would skip companies that still use them. He agrees with Felix Rieseberg, who says Anthropic has removed the coding interview from its loops because it no longer provides signal.

I'm so glad AI killed LeetCode-style coding interviews.

I've talked to young AI talent, and most would simply skip companies that still use LeetCode interviews.

I agree with Felix. Taste, empathy, principled thinking, business sense, and agency are what really matter.

The coding interview is dead, at least for my team at Anthropic. I've seen enough to know that it no longer provides signal. I removed it from loops this month. I have a spicy, optimistic take - I think there's an opportunity for junior engineers: https://felixrieseberg.com/hunger-beats-tenure-advice-for-junior-engineers/
