Sreenisha S. - "Let me tell you about a time where a website I managed suddenly showed slow performance and the mistake on our side was it was unnoticed until a user reported the issue to management.

During the presentation they asked us if the product was ADA com"See full answer

Aneesh M. - "In the Slack system design interview, I proposed a WebSocket-based architecture for real-time messaging, supported by a network of distributed chat servers. To track user connections and route messages efficiently, I leveraged ZooKeeper as a service registry and designed peer-to-peer communication between servers. For the data layer: • I used PostgreSQL to manage relational data such as users and chat participants. • Cassandra was chosen for high-throughput, scalable message storage with dura"See full answer

Malay K. - "For any project based questions, it is important to structure your response clearly, showcasing your thought process, technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and how your work added value. Besides the STAR method, you can also use this kind of framework: 1. Start by selecting a relevant project (related to the role) Give the project background and what specific problem it solved. 2. Align the project's objective and your role Be specific about your role: were you the le"See full answer

Robert H. - "The addition of an intermediate "sanitization" ML is something Neeraj used in the Uber Eats design and again seems kind of outside the scope here and redundant. This can simply be built into the AI response model to save a step. It's not clear what benefit this step provides, and he basically said we should have it "just because it would be good" and there's no concrete reasoning why to include it.

Ross B. - "I most want to communicate a few principals of conflict resolution that I believe were integral in this situation, which are mutual respect, a results orientation, an unwavering focus on the user. To that end, here’s how I’d like to structure this answer: First, I’ll tell you about the project we were working on, to provide some background for you. Second, I’ll describe the disagreement.

Megha V. - "Gradient Descent is an optimisation strategy used in several supervised learning models. It is the technique for finding the optimum solution of an objective function. Typically, for a linear regression use case, it is used to find the weights and bias that produce the lowest loss. It involves computing the partial derivative of the objective function with respect to the weight and bias vectors. To find the optima of the function, the derivative is equated to 0, and iteratively the weight and b"See full answer
