Internship drive season
April to August 2021. I sat down to write this article over the summer to capture my journey during the internship drive season. So back at the end of April, I started to leetcode again. I had first begun Leetcoding to prep for my google STEP interview in January. But that was hardly 10 days or rigorous problem-solving. Though it didn't make me capable enough to solve any question, it gave me an insight into all kinds of popular questions that are asked.

Topics like 2 pointers, knapsack(DP), Binary search, Trees, Maps and graphs hold the most frequent flyer miles. Anyway, I didn't practice much until April then as I was busy with the College Semester, only relying on solving the DSA weekly assignment problems to maintain my skills. In April I probably ended up solving 70-90 questions only and from May onwards
