How to Crack Any System Design Interview 

I have been around the block and find those interviews have gone overboard in recent years. I have never seen any architects being asked software development questions.

This isn’t quite my domain yet. But I love getting the exposure. With these videos I learn what I need to learn.

Hey Sahn, great tips (4:47 especially)! Thank you! 😎✌️

Great video! Some key points were highlighted that I hadn't heard anyone else discuss. Thank you!

I wish I had seen this before interviewing with SpaceX. They don't do too much Leetcode coding challenge but rather they emphasize on system design, the first phone interview is right on system design.

this channel is awesome, loving the videos

Amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing this kind of information! It's so well structured.

I would really love to see in depth series on that topic. This one is just touching the surface

Thanks for this great introduction

This content is exceptional.

Thank you sir! I have subscribed.

Thanks for explaining it so nicely I am always scard of System Design rounds. After seeing your video I have got some confidence

Great! Which to do you use to make this kind of video demostration

What software did you use for preparing the video, it looks amazing and very clear for us to get understand.

Will be great if you can do a separate video for staff level system design interviews. There are still many resources or there such that anyone with few years of experience can do a decent job at system design. So it's important to differentiate.

Thanks a lot 👍

Thanks for sharing

Very helpful one

be prepared !!!!!!!!

I love you man ❤

Why am I expected to know this sht as someone who didn’t graduate yet applying for an entry level software eng job??

Tnkunso much

Thank you for all the hard work you've put into this. I truly appreciate the informative content and the approachable manner in which you presented it. On a related note, I'm curious - what tool or software do you use to create the animated infographics?

This is what you have to do to be the most ideal candidate ever

Thx for all you videos. I have a question, what program u use to do all these animations? Canvas?

Anyone know what type of presentation system he's using?

I wish I were born 10 years earlier. 😢

Very informative video, how to make such high-quality animation?

That's good information. How do you design your videos?

This is absolute perfection. I recently read a similar book, and it was absolute perfection. "Mastering AWS: A Software Engineers Guide" by Nathan Vale

any suggestions for mock interview? I mean how can I attend?

How do people handle these questions when you're attempting to narrow down the scope of the question, yet the interviewer really isn't giving you much. i.e. build new gym Clarifying questions, who is it for? What kind of gym? Where is the gym located? What constraints do we have? Interviewer doesn't give any good direction. I then make assumptions and then have to explain why, but during the interview this feels wrong

The % of this video spent explaining why system designs interviews are important was too large.

I mean, if half of all the interviewees can perfectly design an instagram system, what are the big asses at FB with shiny titles sitting there for? If they can't, what's the point of the whole story telling?
