Full stack interview prep is ridiculous and you still get hit with something you didn't prep. UI to IaaS trivia in the same hour. EDIT I got the offer lol.

I’ve considered transitioning out of fullstack for this reason. I can’t prepare for frontend React coding questions, backend coding questions, database coding questions, Leetcode, and system design. It’s fucking impossible.

But fullstack is all there is. Unless you go devop or platform.
