What is the expectation on Facebook E5 system design interview? Do I really have to nail it hard? I have very limited system design experience. The solutions I come up with seems very contrived to me. I often miss the key problems. I looked at both grokking and 'cracking the coding interview'. They have very different approaches. Any suggestions?#facebook #faang #systemdesign
Expectation is be able to design pornhub. How would you scale the website and ensure smooth viewing experience
Facebook E5 system design is very different than anything you can find online. Grokking SD is way too immature for facebook SD. If you dont have practical experience, whatever you do, you will fail, because they will easily extract if you have just heard and spitting something or you really have practical knowledge.
I would expect them to know that I don't have real experience. In fact, I would tell them what I did and didn't work on if asked. If thats the bar, then I don't see what a candidate like me can do 😜
What are you doing at MS? If you have no real experience at designing software why do you think they would hire you?
