I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Snap (Los Angeles, CA) in June 2020
Interview
Got contacted by a recruiter and set an interview date 5 days later. Had 2 virtual technical interviews with 2 engineers(one conducting, 1 observing) for each. Both 1 hour long, no breaks, although promised one. I only got asked my tech background in the first one and about me in the second one(yes, that's it). Used hackerrank.com to code.
The first coding question was a mess, the recruiter couldn't even explain himself properly and didn't understand c++ although that was the full list of requirements for the job. The second interview part was amazing. The person conducting was very professional and answered all my questions thoroughly.
I wasn't able to finish the first coding question due to the extreme confusion but I completed the second.
2 days later, I got an email saying they were not giving me an offer and I shouldn't ask for feedback because they wouldn't give me any.
Two back to back interviews, mix of behavioral and technical questions. Started with behavioral portion where they asked your standard questions, then had one leetcode easy in one interview and a leetcode medium in the other.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you balance getting your work done with learning new skills
Resume screen then straight to interviews (2 back to back technicals). Mostly graph problems with dfs and backtracking. First 10-15 minutes brief intro + behavioral then 40 minutes coding. Super nice interviewers
2 rounds of mix behavioral + technical. They spend the first 15 minutes going over previous experiences and asking behavioral questions and the rest is technical. Focus on Graph questions, BFS/DFS, etc
