This guy as an interviewer was helpful. Maine jeete interviews die, sare interviewer kind of hope ki I fail, no hints, nothing bas, apni superiority dikha te h.
I really really liked the video. Unlike other videos, it does not follow just the solution which is mostly copied from most of the internet sources. Rather, it was more of a breakdown and a tutorial at the same time that lets an individual know that how to go from one step to other
The topic is really good and discussion is helpful. Thanks for that. Feedback for Shrayansh - You are correcting the candidate too early if you feel their step is not matching with your though process or solution in mind. You can instead allow sometime for the candidate to make the mistake and analyze themselves. There is possibility that the candidate has identified a new way to solve the problem which earlier seemed to not work. - Himanshu
Saw this late, could you add a functionality to notify the group leader that there is a room available now if he is interested, like first come first serve basis. That would be quite interesting. What if we were to incorporate some resource locking stuff over the available rooms and once freed, notify the interested groups, just like a typical booking system
Although this is a mock interview, you are trying your best to help her, and this definitely may not happen in a real interview. In many interviews, interviewers have a mindset of rejection and not selection. One thing is clear: she has a good attitude and is keen to learn. Great effort, btw :)
Yes, since this is a mock interview, i have to provide hints and help so that she learns it and make progress. Else if I stop the process and give just feedback, learning would be very less.
I get your point, in interview this much help we do not get, but this is mock I have to unblock her so that she knows the next step too. And glad she cracked her next very big product company interview and joined also.
Hello. My question is simple. You told us that the MeetingRoom entity has to be stupid. What if I want to encapsulate not only properties of an object but also the corresponding functionality of it? I know It will make my code more coupled in that particular scenario but also it makes sense because all of this functionality related to booking room and came from the same realm this way I introduced higher cohesion into my system sacrificing loosely coupling. When a newcomer comes into my MeetingRoom class he realizes how to work with the class. I grasp the fact that if we want to extend our system in the way of MeetingRoom we might get into trouble because the MeetingRoom violated single responsibility principle. But I think it's a tradeoff between high cohesion and loosely coupling. What do you think?
Day is redundant in Time Interval class. We can store epoch time in start and end time and use epoch time everywhere. That would also simplify the algorithm eliminating the need to consider day
bhai while studying LLD, should i only focus on making the class diagrams, or should i write code also. till now, i have only built class diagram, and did not implement it fully, is it okay, or would you advice to write the complete code as well?
Hi, do practice with the coding initially. Many times Interviewer ask for coding too. But once you get comfortable then UML only is okay, till you have confidence that you can code against your UML
I have given many interviews where interviewers just keep quiet until we ask some question. I know it sucks, but wanted to understand if interviewer guidance should be okay in an interview? like how you are doing?
She is not very confident in LLD round and she has LLD interview next day, so I had to provide the guidance whatever I can, so that she learns from this mock too. And outcome is good only as she cracked her LLD round and the interview:)
Interviewer would be deliberately hinting towards his unwillingness or nasty face, just to get a hold of your attitude. that's the part of interview. You might ask him politely if its okay to consider this or not. Not much are supportive.
OOPs is the backbone of computer science? I would have rejected it there. I cannot believe she has 4 years of experience and she is talking such statements. She is working on embedded systems for 4 years but her OOPs knowledge is also poor.
It was great 😊 # Design Meeting Scheduler ## Requirements: - there are n given meeting rooms - Book a meeting room for a given time slot and capacity (start time, end time, capacity) - send notification to the user who are invited to the meeting - use meeting room calendar to track the meetings date and time [Every meeting room has calender] Didn't get this ? ## Thinking - We can use a min heap to store the meeting rooms based on the end time of the meeting - We can use a hashmap to store the meeting room and the meeting details - We will use observer design pattern to send notification to the user who are invited to the meeting - Cancel/Update a meet? Yes - User can join late/early ## Algos thinking - Min Heap for allocating rooms - Observer Pattern for notifying ## Flow - There will users (N) - There will be meeting rooms (M) - Can fetch all meeting rooms available at desired slot with filter of capacity - Can book a meeting room and add the meeting details to the meeting room calendar - Have to send notification to the user who are invited to the meeting - Cancel/Updates should update users and meeting room calendar (Whole meet can be cancelled or one user can cancel) - All Meeting room will be available 24 Hrs ## Entities - User (id, name, email, phone) - MeetingRoom (id, name, capacity, location{floor, building}) - Meeting (id, start_time, end_time, capacity, meeting_room, users_invited [User1, User2, User3]) - Calender (List bookedIntervals) - Intervals (start_time, end_time, date) ## Managers - MeetingRoomManager (List, Map, CRUD a meeting room, getAllMeetingRooms) - MeetingScheduler (bookMeeting(create Meeting), cancelMeeting, updateMeeting, getAvailableMeetingRooms(capacity, Interval)) - NotificationManager (sendNotification)
Hi if possible i would like to request you to kindly use an IDE along with the visual representation so that we can also go through the code to understand the flow. Would be really helpful
Hi Anjon, if you see my LLD playlist, i follow the same. But seems Antra dont have iPen, so visual representation with mouse is difficult for her. Thats why she went ahead with text editior
