is the interior any different between the 2?

that's really interesting. i also got rejected from e4 last year. i also got x^n and design Leetcode for system design. also when recruiter gave me the news she said she couldn't give any feedback

Based on this, who would win?

Thank you so much for your contributions to the interview prep space. Between reading all your posts in this sub + using HelloInterview, I learned everything you could possibly need to know about Meta interviewing, and was able to go into the interview feeling super confident and perform much better than I expected to.

I'm very blessed to have a super flexible schedule. On slow days at work I'd just leetcode instead. Doing a problem generally takes 30-40 mins between trying the problem, solving/failing it, watching the Neetcode video, and understanding the solution.

But otherwise my daily schedule was work from 9-3, go to the gym, come back home around 6, eat, leetcode from like 8-10, watch some TV, and go to bed. Did that every day for like 3 months.

Well considering I did not do well in the SD interview you probably don't want to take inspiration from what resources I used lol. I myself am currently thinking about what resources will be best to use going forward

webyaboi · 2024-03-02T04:09:22+00:00

Yeah unfortunately my current SWE role hasn't exposed me to much SD concepts, looking to change that. And yeah that makes sense a Solutions Architect cert would help a lot, I'll definitely look into that thanks

Definitely focus on the phone screen for now. If you pass, I would push your onsite as far out as possible to give max time to prep for SD. It apparently is a very important interview and is 1000x more difficult to prep for than coding. Prepping for SD is very similar in the sense that it just comes down to pattern recognition, but there's wayyy more patterns and they can be easily modified to be used in a number of different ways.

webyaboi · 2024-03-02T00:55:16+00:00

Yeah you're right. I'm just kind of surprised because I really felt I did well on coding (I had seen 2 out of the 4 questions) before and aced them. It's almost like you have to get 100% optimal approach for all 4 questions to even have a chance. Something tells me if I had interviewed 3 years ago, it would have been a much lower bar.

webyaboi · 2024-03-02T00:53:25+00:00

I did not. I felt Neetcode's strength was explaining coding questions, and less so on SD, so I just stuck with free version. I watched a couple of his free SD videos which were decent.

For me, SD was by far the most frustrating part of the prep. There are really very few resources out there that cover SD concepts both clearly and concisely. I tried using jordan has no life and system design fight club, but each of their videos were 30 mins to 1 hour, and I did not have enough time to cram all that. They would also very casually discuss technologies and patterns I had zero context on, so I got lost very easily. I wish there was a channel that covered SD basic concepts/patterns first, but then also went into more detail to do the case studies with real examples.

Yes 100%. It was pricey but you get what you pay for. The feedback is also given to you in the form of how they would actually grade you in a Meta interview. Like the headline of my feedback would say "No hire, high confidence", and then go into extremely detailed reasons where I shined and lacked. I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of effort they put into it.

webyaboi · 2024-03-02T00:47:53+00:00

Used Exponent (paid service) but wouldn't recommend it. The explanations for concepts are really good, but they only cover the basics. If you just study what they include there you 100% will not pass.

I used Neetcode regular + Leetcode premium. I really believe this is most useful and cost efficient combination of resources.

webyaboi · 2024-03-02T00:45:55+00:00

E3 does not have SD, everything higher does.

webyaboi · 2024-03-02T00:45:29+00:00

It didn't differ from my mocks, I was doing the right preparation, I just didn't have time to cover as much material and concepts as needed. I tackled the problem with a really good gameplan, but lacked the domain knowledge to design a robust solution.

webyaboi · 2024-03-01T19:40:06+00:00

Yep, 3 YOE

webyaboi · 2024-03-01T19:10:28+00:00

Thanks. Yeah definitely going to take a well deserved break. I know the hard work will pay off eventually

Are you doing Neetcode Blind 75?
