Can i do LLD in Go instead of c++/java?

I'm 2024 passout with decent experience in golang. I never worked on java. So can i do LLD rounds in go during interviews? P.S. I'm aiming for big PBCs

Golang has different design philosophy and lot of interviewers may not be familiar with it. Thus the design pattern you choose may seem counterintuitive or wrong to them if they are used to Java

It's better to invest some time to learn Java, shouldn't take long if you already have understanding of other languages.

Personally I would not use it unless the role is Golang based or the interviewers understands Go. But you can always try and find out if it works in your case

Got it. I was not inclined towards learning java but this perspective gives a reason to learn. Thanks

Cool, learning it would help not only in interview but after that too since many big companies still use Java

LLD is a way of designing software it’s language independent

I was legit thinking you were talking about lld linker in llvm. And was about to give an answer on that.
