If you're still grinding LeetCode in 2026, you're preparing for an interview that no longer exists. The entire tech hiring landscape has shifted — and most candidates have no idea.

In this video, I break down exactly what's replacing the traditional LeetCode interview, why Meta, Google, and Amazon are completely reinventing how they hire, and the exact playbook you need to land offers in 2026 and beyond.

I'm Aman Manazir, a career coach and software engineer. I interned at companies like Amazon, Shopify, and HP in college, and the day I graduated I landed a $168,000/year* full-time software engineering job. I help you make it as a computer science student and landing your dream job.

If you're a dedicated programmer who wants to land your dream internship or job in 2026 without spamming LeetCode, spending hours at career fairs, or applying to thousands of positions, join the Software Engineering Accelerator and work directly with me.
