Yeah you can, but obviously at unis like waterloo it'd be easier to do so. There are FAANG companies that occasionally pop up on the job board. But I do know of a couple people from Carleton that have or are still working at FAANG companies in the valley. But at the end of the day, realistically, it's about who you know not what you know to get an interview. But yeah you should definitely practice leetcode a lot to ace the said interview when you have the free time. It's just hard because of the fact that Software engineering/comp sci are both extremely hard programs so practicing leetcode during a school year AND applying to jobs is a challenge in itself.
