Answer
Clarifying requirements ensures alignment with the interviewer's expectations.
Before diving into system design, clarifying requirements helps avoid assumptions and ensures that the proposed solution meets the user's needs. For instance, when designing a feature for an e-commerce site, asking questions about expected traffic can guide architectural decisions like whether to use microservices or a monolithic architecture.
