So I got a technical interview (pair programming) for shopify SDE intern, and the email said that it is going to be a
Systems Design problem. I have never given a systems design interview and I am not sure what to expect. Furthermore, it is going to be a programming based interview and every systems design interview is like a whiteboard based interview, where the interviewee draws diagrams and explains each component. Does anyone have ANY idea on how to study for a programming based system design interview? I am really nervous about this and I am genuinely super lost and nobody I know knows what to expect for this interview. If you have any resources please please let me know. Thank you!
