It’s good for both engineers and companies if companies try to ask more questions related to role instead of throwing a bunch of hard leetcode problems and congrats on new role 🙌

How did you prepare for system design round ? What was your strategy ? Could you post some resources for it ?

proxy sql / zookeeper or any central config repository can be used to get the connection strings for the sharded parts right ?

Your HLD question made me think of an interesting problem to solve, but after you mentioned getting the connection string for the given user_id from the downstream microservice, it is the Redis cluster. Am I right?

Bhaiya, Should I buy your existing Elite 1.0 frontend development course now, or are you planning to launch a new course (Elite 2.0)?

[ajayprabhu]

In my(2nd yr student) eyes Sanket feels like a god who just goes on bullying every single interview

[Engineer_With_A_Life]

I am not getting interview call from Microsoft. Is there anyone in same boat 😢

[ai.alokgupta]

[coderprakash]
