How many yoe?

[little lance]

2.5 yoe @gritty bone

[little lance]

one was evaluate division

other one was ingesting ad event objects and doing processing and calculations

How do u practice these kinda real world things if ur unemployed do u just spam “design a ___” on lc or is it reading designing intensive data or something

[eternal ivy]

Also curious about this

[little lance]

there are some problems on lc that kinda relate (eg: max stack, lru cache, design minesweeper, design excel, design parking garage, tc)

the pattern i notice in common with each of this flavor is building the basic functionality and then extending it. in terms of sys design thinking, system design primer is good start

also read up on solid in terms of general good coding practice

[grim storm]

Awesome yeah I just had two onsites in a row with these type on them and I just got Uber next steps so this is very timely. Btw I just found out today that the databricks tagged qs have a bunch of these “irl” questions like lc 352 collected together @eternal ivy if you didn’t know either

[little lance]

also icf sample too is good prep.

i had a pair prog inteerview where we incrementally designed a rate limiter

[little lance]

gl on uber. they care so much abt technical depth above all despite me being a clear communicator

[little lance]

so if the interviewer probes u for explanation, try not to be as handwavey
