Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Snap (Los Angeles, CA) en ene 2015
Entrevista
Applied through the jobs page online. Had a phone screen, and then went onsite. Onsite interview consisted of a lunch discussion (fit/culture), and then 4 technical interviews - 3 with engineers, 1 with an engineering director.
Because of privacy concerns with new Snapchat features, interviews are conducted in a separate building from where engineers work. That was definitely a bit frustrating since it limited my ability to get a feel for the company culture.
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.

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.
