I got asked system design for my 2nd round. Smth about RBAC. Caught me totally off guard

lusty bridge
#

"what's the big O complexity of this algo"

urban bay
#

For the system design they asked me about some dist sys stuff, map reduce, and some basic system stuff

urban bay
lusty bridge
#

That's usually as deep as most companies go lol

lusty bridge
#

Out of curiosity how did yg learn system design? I gotta hop on this at some point

lusty bridge

tidal heart
lusty bridge

It’s all random asf

subtle portal
#

Is the system design leetcode course worth it

urban bay
#

Nah depends if they fw u or not

leaden fox
urban bay
leaden fox
#

failed in what manner, the LC?

urban bay
#

u can just tell by vibes bro

#

Like if they are smiling and happy etc u probably passed

#

if they’re just sitting in silence it’s over 💔

leaden fox
#

might be ngl💔

#

subtle portal
#

If the interviewer asked me what are my goals for the next 5 years what are my chances 💀

leaden fox
#

not bad

#

should been like at your company

desert kestrel
#

yoo i got my 2 snowflake rounds soon bro how did yours go and any advice? rec said 1 round leetcode 1 round sys design 30 min each but now im seeing that theyre both 1 hour interviews back to back lmao

subtle portal
#

Lowk I think the oa was alr. The qu3stions were like common questions, the only hard 5hing was using Java / C++ for leetcode cuz I mostly use Python 😭

#

Also how do you guys study system design

#

Is the course on leetcode good

#

If the interviewer shared the codepad link for part 2 , does it mean for part 2 they're just gonna ask leetcode

subtle portal
#

2 coderpad

#

Og wait

#

Yep 2 coderpads

#

One for each round

#

Wbu

leaden fox
#

same

subtle portal
#

Does it mean 2 leetcode rounds

#

Or it doesn't mean anything. It can be leetcode or system design

leaden fox
#

no idea

leaden fox
#

expect 2 pc

#

lc

subtle portal
#

Oh ima prepare both then

#

😭

leaden fox
#

i think you can just ask them for a leetcode

subtle portal
#

Wait you can request

#

leaden fox
#

my friend asked the interviewer for a leetcode easy and he got it

subtle portal
#

😭 are you serious

#

Can I ask them for a 2 sum

leaden fox
#

yeah he asked for 2sum

#

and then valid anagrams

#

and reverse string

subtle portal
#

Ain't no way this is real

#

💀

subtle portal
