My thoughts:

  1. Have some nice sleep before the day of interview.
  2. Practice your leadership principles well. That's more important than any technical questions.
  3. Be prepared for leetcode medium questions. Interviewers will not have time to ask hard questions, since half of the interview is covered by leadership principles.
