A good taster

I think the example situations provided were very diverse and they explained scenarios quite well.

some critiques are;

While there was a general structure how the examples went which is great, some further detail in the intro chapter about how you should present your interview about requirements first, data structure , design etc would be nice so people understand why this flow matters would be great.

another thing would be for there to be references for technologies to look into after each chapter so the listener or reader can research them if they aren't familiar with them, while having example scenarios are good one thing that is very important is the knowledge of understanding more about the subject matter being spoken so you can feel more confident talking about it.

Overall, the content in the book for examples was very well explained for how to design them and it would definitely help people out with the system design interviews but for people who may not be entirely familiar with those technologies or trade offs specifically spoken about in the examples references at the end would be good.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
