I have an onsite next week at Square, and the recruiter gave me an actual question for the system design interview. It’s a pretty common question that you can find online, so I’m bit confused on what they are exactly looking for in this interview. Anyone working at Square- what does Square expect from me in this sort of interview and how should I show my competency? #square
API, schema, HLD, scaling discussion. Pretty normal SDI topics.
Practice answering the question in depth! I interview a lot of candidates for the system design component and a lot of candidates still end up really struggling.... make sure you can describe the full stack in detail.
Would you mind if I ask a few more questions on dm?

Common sense is not common! Ask questions. Start with basic, ie what features they would like to see in the system and then jump into space/usage discussion, and then design.
