Sriram Panyam returns to the show to discuss the
system design interview (SDI) with host Robert Blumen. This
challenging part of the hiring process is included in the
interview loop for many jobs across tech, including management
and for all levels from entry to senior. The conversation starts
with a look at what the SDI is, who will face it, and how
critical this interview is for hiring and leveling. Sriram shares
some common system design questions and what the interviewers are
generally looking for, including stated versus unstated
requirements and ambiguity in the questions. He offers
recommendations on how candidates should disambiguate their
designs and manage their time. He shares some personal stories of
interview failures and successes, and even discusses some
mistakes that interviewers make.
