I'm just curious what companies with really difficult system design interviews might ask compared to easier ones. There isn't a straightforward easy/med/hard like there is on leetcode.
Also, while I'm at it, what other hard questions have you been asked, other than leetcode? (For companies that are actually worth working for, not places paying 70k entry level)
tc: 100k

Who knows 🤷♂️
Google, databricks, snap were the toughest for me
Meta was more open ended and actually good (but tiring, as you had to provide lots of details). If you didn’t know your stuff you’d come out easy as not having the knowledge.
It was more high level open ended.
Apple was more trivia about the platform (iOS), and less about architecture. If you knew it well it would have been easy. Very old school.
