Training at atcoder or codeforces or something else?
By noobmaster101101, 3 weeks ago, In English,

I know this may be a repeated question but I am new to codeforces I usually take part in CodeChef contest. so I was wondering should I first finish this- https://kenkoooo.com/atcoder/#/training or start doing codeforces problem cause atcoder problem and div 2 a-c don't usually require some data structure and algorithm so is this a better option to do these problems?

or should I do something else my main aim is by the end of my engineering to get into a good product based company right now I have started my 2 year

If you are interested in getting into a product based company, do Leetcode. Codeforces, codechef and atcoder won't help much

      I said, "it won't help much". Never said, it won't help at all. While codeforces helps you think better and faster and become good at problem solving, leetcode introduces you to the type of problems asked in interview. Also good rating and ranks here in cf can always get you a referral or recruiters can approach you. So, do both if possible.

    I think it should be forbidden to assume that someone is interested in getting in a "product based company" without that someone explicitly saying so.
