API Design interview practice

API design interviews test your ability to create intuitive, scalable, and well-documented APIs. Practice the questions about REST conventions, versioning, and developer experience.

Sample questions

What a API Design round actually looks like.

These are the kinds of questions you'll drill. Real mock rounds will generate many more — tailored to the exact JD you paste in.

1

How do you design a RESTful API for a resource with complex relationships?

2

When would you choose GraphQL over REST? What are the trade-offs?

3

Walk me through your approach to API versioning and backward compatibility.

4

How do you handle pagination, filtering, and sorting in a REST API?

5

Describe your approach to API authentication and rate limiting.

Why practice API Design with a mock round?

Reading API Design questions isn't the same as answering them live. You need the rep — the pause, the clarifying question, the moment where you realize you forgot the framework. We put you in that exact spot, then show you what a strong answer would have looked like.

  • Questions grounded in your actual JD
  • Voice or text — practice your delivery
  • Model answer + specific gaps after every question
  • Follow-ups that drill into your weakest answers
  • Pause and resume anytime
