J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Snap
Entretien
It's clear to me that they don't train people to interview properly and leave a good candidate experience. Half of the interviewers were very dismissive and acted like I was wasting their time.
The interviews were really difficult, they expect you to write working code of very complex problems and make it work within the timeframe for 100% of use cases (and run it to prove it). The worst thing is how bad the interviewers act when you can't get there, it's plain and obvious and they start being dismissive in a very obvious non-hidden manner. Had interviews where I did bad in the past but generally interviewers know to act nicely and provide a good candidate experience. Not Snap!

Hard but interesting. Had to go through 1 HM round, 2 coding rounds and 2 systems design rounds. Coding round was hit counter, and message recommendation system. The System design rounds were a bit challenging.

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.
