    First off, you can start by exploring the system design topic courses.

    But, it's also not common to have new grad tested for system design, so I would also study and practice on LLD/UML/Class diagrams, in case your question ends up being lower level design for a system.

    I'd go through the top ways people fail SD interviews course:

    • Not staying focused on the problem
    • Insufficient communication
    • Not driving the design
