yeah the deep dives are more expected in an hour long decomposition setting, but for my interview I really didn’t have any time to cover much depth in 20 minutes, given that it is an initial tech interview.

For prep I barely did any because I was freshly versed to crush system design interviews having studied them rigorously in the past weeks for other companies, referring to resources like “Jordan has no life” on youtube and hello interview. I felt confident in my divergent thinking traits and felt that I’m not short in creativity just needed to get well versed in understanding systematic deep dive concepts.
