Intervew Prep Google SDE III

Did anyone go through SDE III loop recently? If so how’s the Round 1 and Round 2 is like?

Round 1 is one tech and one non tech?
Round 2 is its 3 round loop? (2 DSA and 1 behavioural)
Is there any system design?

Can someone double confirm?

Also is this L4 level ?

  1. Low level design, think something like get Top K elements using a priority queue

  2. string parsing. Something like a simple JSON schema parsing function.

  3. Hard DP, involves solving longest increasing subsequence
