Frequently Asked Questions

How does the System Design mock round work with voice?

Sophia presents a high-level system design problem (e.g., "Design a rate limiter"). You explain your components, database selections, and scaling tradeoffs. Sophia asks follow-ups on single points of failure, scaling, and bottleneck resolution.

Is system design asked for freshers?

System design is typically asked for 2+ years of experience. However, basic design concepts like API design, database selection, and caching are sometimes asked even at SDE-1 level in product companies.
