Expect questions on system design principles, scalability, and real-world applications. Brush up on Java, Spring Boot, and data structures. Mock interviews and peer insights can help.

Thanks, they asked LLD (wrt bookmyshow) in my second round. What kind of systems to expect for HLD - in the third round?

If anyone recently gave a system design round in Adobe, please comment/ DM. Need more clarity on what to expect, much appreciated.

Hi Everyone,
I'm trying for a job in bangalore for over 6 months now, was suffering from anxiety attacks so started taking medicine. People laid off way later than me have started with their new jobs and are happy yet I'm still struggling here looking for a job, they are getting hikes and I'm just looking to get hired.
Is it time that I should give up engineering and pursue other domains??
Because Engineering used to excite me and how my luck has treated me and how much unnecessary problems I'm facing, I'm doubting if I should give up now.

I want to know the honest opinion. I ve been upskilling and coding , but not getting any interview

What are some key considerations and best practices to keep in mind when interviewing in Adobe?

Adobe Interview Product Design

Senior Product Designer

I have 2.5 years of experience and my system design round of Microsoft is in 2 days. They can ask me high level and low level design both. I haven't ever studied anything related to high level system design. I have really less time to prepare. Can someone guide me how do I proceed? Or if someone has appeared for Microsoft's system design round can they tell me what kind of questions can I expect?

Adobe Computer Specialist Interview

Interviewed with Agoda for Lead/Staff Full Stack role and cleared their coding, design, architecture and a special round called coding+architecture. The interview went well as per my assesment. But finally a rejection mail saying they moved with other candidates. They even asked about the ECTC (before coding +architecture round) and also asked details about relocation to Bangkok assuring that I have almost cleared interview for Staff role and final round ie was coding + architecture was meant for deciding  b/w lead and staff role. What could be reason behind this. Preferably would like to hear from someone who had similar experience with Agoda.

Recently gave interview for adobe sde2. It’s been a month and hr is coming up with new reason for sharing feedback and saying they will conduct one more round of interviews. 
Anyone else having such experience ?
Also is adobe actually hiring or just doing this for filling backup positions .

Horrible hiring experience  of adobe

Off late, the frontend engineering at Razorpay has become more of a data entry job. The design system (god knows how many years it will take to be completely ready) is restricting both the devs and the designers a LOT. Designers are literally fed up with being dictated to design things only in a particular way (limiting even animations, font-size, choice of italics v/s bold). There was even a long 2 month discussion to get font size for a component to support higher value, if you honestly want to know. 

The so called core team has been developing blade since God knows when. Agree that they've done a great work with tokens and other stuff, but it seems that by the time it's ready, it'll already be outdated design wise (suxs).

So, any other devs, all they have to do is follows.

1. Open Figma
2. See if the component in Figma is supported by Blade.
3. If yes, then see if our designer has by mistake used any font-size, color, margin or spacing not supported by Blade.
4. If yes, start a thread between everyone and give them a month to come to a resolution (Blade team always retaliates like it's a personal attack)
5. Eventually end up using your own component to save time and move fast.
6. Explain to your manager's manager's manager why you can't use Blade. (they've funded it for 2 years and no dev likes it, so they push it from top)


If your company has some interesting approach to this, please add in the comments.

Welcome to Data Scientists's Private Community

Hi Guys,
I am attending an interview process for Lead Data Science. I want to know the previous experiences with to improvise my interview experience. 
The company having 5 rounds and each round is an elimination (the scary part).

First round is DSA and Data Science fundamental. Where I have learnt DSA 5years ago and now I’m out of practice. For Data Science it might be more like ML (I assume). 

Second round is System Design, which will be more on designing system and scalability 

Third round is more off Technical And Managerial around.

4th round is managerial round 

5th round is HR discussion 

I want to know where to prepare for all the rounds and what’s the efficient way to prepare for it.

What all kind of questions are asked in mobile system design round?
Please share some examples!

Mobile system design round

I recently interviewed at a startup for a Backend role. I cleared the initial take-home assignment round and subsequent DSA round and their HR told me the third round would be a Design round. I prepared accordingly. At the time of the interview, no one showed up. I had to wait for 15 minutes for someone to show up. Instead of asking me a Design question, the latecomer asked me another DSA question. I asked him why is he doing that as it was clearly communicated to be a Design round. The interviewer said Design would be asked in the next round if I clear this one. Weird!

He only gave me 10 minutes to come up with the solution. After that he spilled the answer, and cut the call abruptly. I get a rejection email the next day.

Now why am I writing this post? Because I just saw the CTO of thar company rant on Linkedin about how his candidates declined their offer letters at the last minute. The moral of the story is that if you misbehave with your candidates, they will misbehave with you. So be prepared to take the L.

I am preparing for interviews and never had any system design round before. Not sure how should I start preparing. I know there are lots of videos out there, but don't want to follow some random posts. Seen posts from bytebytego but they are most random posts . Rather looking for a way to learn systematically from scratch even though I might many of them. Looking for free resources

How should I prepare for system design interview,?

Have more companies started asking system design to freshers?

What is best system design course available? 
Could you please list top 3 in order with best as 1. 
Also mention what type of candidates are best suited for each course.

I’m currently going through interview ready- Gaurav Sen. And find it hard to follow since I have almost never done system design. Hence I find it ok-ok , are there any better ones out there? I know grokking is one more. Please provide suggestions with course name and best suited for what professionals(eg , beginner with no exposure to system design , 5 yoe with some exposure to system design , advanced with high exposure system design)

I'm interviewing a company, where one round is rapid prototyping round? I have never given this round earlier? Even though they are saying it's figma understanding, ui analysis round. But due to unfamiliarity I'm asking in the community.

Few things I'm looking for -
1. What will be the evaluation criteria?

Anything related advice.
