Hey Guys,

I’m a front end developer closing in on 10YOE. 
Looking at the current market, I want to be interview ready before push comes to the shove. 


However I am looking for resources for system design rounds. I have seen companies have different expectations for system design from front end roles. 

Thanks in Advance. Cheers!

Product Designer

Currently working as SDE 1 and looking for SDE-1 opportunities only.
Asking what kind of things they ask us in interviews?
And how much they dive into them?
Like 
DSA is important. Except that what should I start preparing on?
Do companies really ask System design? If yes 
What they ask lld or hld?

What does an interviewer expect from a candidate who has less than 2 yoe?

Software Developer

Kindly suggest some good System design questions that one should prepare for a Senior role. Pls share from your experience of what is currently being asked in interviews. Will be of great help.

Which are some good System design questions ?

Why AMA?-
New to GV. I see potential here; trying to gauge audience and perhaps I can talk about a thing or two; can definitely learn from ya’al otherwise.

Primer Qs (from some successful AMAs outside of GV)-
What tech has better future?
Is Ai going to kill our jobs?
How to increase Tc 5x, 10x, 20x+?
Startups vs big corps?

Background, Tc stuff-
Decade+ yoe
Started with <10Lpa. Crossed >10Lpm.
Life is fun and no amount of money is enough.
I’ve seen it firsthand that the investments and luxuries grow at far bigger rate than your comp, Can’t complain though.

Anybody (with >=2 YOE) here who secured a job purely on the basis of DSA?

Every second/third post on my feed is promoting some mentorship/coaching. Fed up with it. 

The post starts with some gyaan ( mostly related to interview) and then ends with mentorship or coaching promo. Especially people who cracked interview at amazon and microsoft. And now any random company. Some post has pic too, which is fully unrelated to the post. 

From SDE’s perspective. 
Job at work is different from interview. And i am sure current employees, if they have to go through interview process of the same company for the same position, most of them won’t be able to crack in the first go. ( Unless they know the exact questions to be asked ). 

Coding rounds.
Companies usually have a set of questions (question bank) and interviewer picks question from it. Except for the very exceptional case, it is quite difficult to solve these questions if you haven’t solved them ( or related questions) earlier in the given time. So, it all boils down to how close are you to their question bank. 

So, instead of other things, if linkedin mentors posted about the questions they were asked, that would be more useful. 

To be continued….

Hi all, I have around 2 years of experience, and I am getting a chance to interview with Google. I am currently working on frontend, but I want to move to backend and I have been preparing for that, but with phone screen round coming up, if I tell them I have worked on Frontend, then I will definitely be considered for frontend role and if I lie there, then I might fuck up interview if they ask backend questions, any suggestions will be appreciated. What should I be doing in this case, Thank you! 
Please advise!
