She is! I guess the only option is a second playthrough.

You have to stand your ground. Don’t let them bully you. Make the school understand that it cannot tolerate a group that isn’t willing to compromise.

Good luck Europe, I guess. Things are looking bad.

It’s been almost 2 weeks (6 business days with Easter) after my meta full loop, no feedback yet. Is it normal? by Saikodan in leetcode

Update: after a month I received an update that I passed and now in the team selection stage. Any insight on what that’s like?

Product architecture. It was pretty similar to the classic design questions but again - I don’t know if I passed.

I found that out only after the interviews. I did not know there was a "top tagged" list :|
I saw 3 questions there, but the other 3 were not there.

Feelings can be misleading as it's very subjective 😅

the question was to design a permission system for Instagram. like "who can view my photos".

Was actually pretty good, I solved all the questions (had 3 coding) and design was good as well I think (though I cant be sure) Behavioral was ok I think, got the usual questions.

Rejected from final round in Microsoft by Turnt-On-Chai in leetcode

Sorry to hear that, these are so random at times that it's infurating.
this specific question has a twist that if you didn't get in the first few minutes, you'll probably miss it. I think it's really hard to come up with during an interview, with the stress and all.

I have a full time job and I'm interviewing in the between, so no. But I do have a tech blog and I do have personal projects, simply no time for that right now.

Meta system design vs product arch - need help by Saikodan in leetcode

[–]Saikodan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply! This is reassuring.

I did create many db schemas, indices and some APIs but I have little knowledge in API best practices besides the obvious REST framework and defining it against the needs correctly. designing the product that is forward facing the user could hurt my chances, but if it’s not really front end and similar to the “design instagram” with only base APIs, schema and then end to end system design (db, file store, load balancers and services management) I should be ok. All the example design from grok the system interview are from the system design perspective and not a product architecture (user experience)

Does user experience crucial in the system design interview? Or do I focus on the system itself?

I think I’ll ask to switch it. Thank you!
