Reflection: Before getting the offer from Microsoft, I failed Facebook and Amazon. Don't give up and stay positive. I am just an average undergrad student. I am not smart, but I worked hard to get better at DS&Algo. I honestly think that anyone can do it if I did it.
Furthermore, communication skills are very underrated. I think I didnt get offers from Facebook and Amazon because I couldn't commuicate well in those interviews. Practice speaking out loud when you do leetcode.
Watch Neetcode and Back to Back SWE youtube channel and they will help you get better at interviews.
