J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Snap (Los Angeles, CA) en janv. 2016
Entretien
Recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn. Talked with me over the phone for about 15 minutes, didn't even ask for my resume. Recruiter told me that all the communications will be done within 48 hours at each stage of the interview.
They set up a technical phone call interview.
The interviewer called about 15 minutes late. Asked a lot about my work, and kept stressing over what technical challenges I've faced. The coding question was straight forward, and I could complete it in 20-25 minutes. The remaining time, he asked me if I have any questions for him.
It has been 3 weeks, I still haven't heard from them, in spite of sending them a follow up email. Even if they're not moving forward, they should respond to candidate's email.
I have given interviews with Airbnb, Uber, Box and other good ones, but all the recruiters were very professional unlike Snapchat.

Question 1
Design a recommendation system for messaging to predict the next word while typing
For the technical rounds, I was asked leetcode style questions. Need to practice Data structures and algorithms in order to do well on the interviews. It's important to explain the code as you go along and clarfiy any questions with the interviewer.
Interviewer is not good, has an accent and doesn’t point you in the right direction. Did not seem to be on your side the whole time. It was not a very nice experience.
