Do SEs with less that 2 years exp. need Systems Design Practice?
Interview Experience
Hi all, I'm out of bootcamp about a year (got COVID in the face the month after graduation - FUN!), and I've been lucky to get some contracts to keep me afloat since. Now that the market seems (slightly) better I'm looking to prep DS&As like a maniac for (hopefully) an okay full-time entry-level/early career gig, either front-end or full-stack. My question is this: do I need to focus on systems design study + coding challenges as well? It would seem to me that no one in their right mind would let a junior/early dev near actual system design IRL and that those challenges/questions would be a less salient part of interviewing someone with my limited experience. Not looking to skip anything or be lazy, I just want to make sure I'm not spending a bunch of time on something I don't need.
