Software Engineer Interview Experience
Interview process
The system design interview was a bit different than the typical ones, it asked me to review an existing design doc and give feedback. Initially I was a bit uncertain, but was able to navigate the doc and point out a few issues, then it becomes a typical deep dive session on failure handling, overload protection.
