Leetcoder talks about his job hunt - coding interview parody

Sometimes making fun of something is the best way to change things, the state of interviewing is a mess so I thought I'd remix a classic meme.

I'm also going to make a video going over a fairly recent study done by Microsoft that showed their own coding interviews failed miserably and more accurately predicted ability to handle stress rather than actual coding ability.

Not surprisingly software engineers don't usually code with a stranger staring at them in a semi-hostile environment, so the standard coding interview isn't very useful.

Be sure to follow or subscribe if you're interested in learning about that Microsoft study
