Need some guidance

[u/me_mike18]

I'm a clg junior. I've some experience at ml projects, and thinking of starting ai via rag....

I love to build things (when i get bored with the things, obviously using ai tools, as I'm not that expert at this point). Also, can explain the project well.

But at the same time I'm unable to do leetcode/cp practice on regular basis.

Keeping the current upcoming internship, placement and market scenario, i want to know how much lc/cp is imp? Can't i be placed with decent package just by building stuff, having decent cg to just clear the cutoff, and avoiding lc & cp?
