EDIT: Got the verbal confirmation that I passed 2 days later! Original Post: Classic poll for asking what you guys think my chances are 3/4 questions from LC facebook top 50, 2nd one couldn't find at all System design also both from the LC discussions Two coding interviews Two distributed design interviews One behavioral interview Prep 200 LC + 200 prior LC, 400 total DDIA, All SD qs found related to meta in LC Behavior Friendly, sometimes prompted for more technical detail, but conversation was very happy at the end and was told it was enjoyable. Tech 1: 1, got this one optimally, with 5 minutes to spare, but interviewer had some interesting follow ups ex. "convince me this works without using tests" 2, linear solution, but interviewer wanted more and had 2 follow ups: 2a. simpler version-> provided logn solution 2b. similar version to the original prompt but with a twist, mentioned some random pointer pivoting and binary search, he nodded but only coded the logn solution as we agreed the linear one was trivial Not confident in that 2nd part since I didn't get it. SD 1: Felt like I did well and addressed all the interviewers follow-ups, 2 interviewers SD 2: Interviewer reported a "strong start". Addressed follow-ups, except one at the end where he pointed a single point of failure that I didn't have time to address. Tech 2: Crushed both with 15 minutes to spare People will always feel like they can do better, but this was my perspective #meta
offer on lock if you’re not lying
Didnt read that wall of text. Rule of thumb: if you have to ask the answer is no
Dense brain comment
That’s a stupid take. It’s hard to be objective about your own performance since you are emotionally close to the situation
How did u prepare for interview . Any advice and help appreciated.
it's in the post for those wondering
What were the design questions
I thought E4 only got 1 sys design interview?
it's likely one of the system designs was just for training
