Concurrency for L4 onsite interviews?

Is it common to be asked questions or follow ups involving concurrency for L4 SWE onsites? Considering that it’s not mentioned at all on your resume. tc 200

Depends, but not impossible. I was asked some basic concepts and had to discuss it during my interviews at Apple even though I had no experience at all. The HM could tell I didn’t have the experience, but I’m guessing they’re also looking to see how you would reason about concepts that are unfamiliar to you and make an educated answer. Just be honest (don’t try to gloss over it), don’t just give up, and communicate your thought process well. A good interviewer will adjust expectations accordingly.
