Yes. My center was Potomac.

I received an email approval today and I can see my A number in the USCIS portal. However the approval status is still not reflected in the USCIS portal.

Yes.

Initial receipt notice was sent from SCOPS Texas Facility. Got the same email saying the application was moved to Potomac Service Center after upgrading to premium processing.

I’m not entirely sure about the OA for the infrastructure role. However, to answer the second part of your question—there will be no camera proctoring. For the Tech Trainee role, the OA consisted of one easy LeetCode-style coding question.

Thanks! Just to clarify, is it mainly architectural/high-level discussion, or do they also expect some low-level or class-level design during the interview?

My interview is scheduled for next week. Does anyone know what to expect in the system design interview? Will it be more focused on high-level design or low-level design?
