Grokking the System Design Interview – Design Gurus
Grokking the System Design Interview Information
System design questions have become a standard part of the software engineering interview process
Performance in these interviews reflects upon your ability to work with complex systems and translates into the position and salary the interviewing company offers you.
Most engineers struggle with system design interview (SDI), partly because of their lack of experience in developing large-scale systems, and partly because of the unstructured nature of SDIs.
Even engineers, who’ve some experience building such systems, aren’t comfortable with these interviews, mainly due to the open-ended nature of design problems that don’t have a standard answer.
This course is a complete guide to master the SDIs.
It is created by hiring managers who’ve been working at Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and Amazon.
We’ve carefully chosen a set of questions, that haven’t only been repeatedly asked at top companies but also provide a thorough experience to handle any system design problem. Let’s get started!
