Interview Process

I had my onsite interview at Snapchat for the Mobile Software Engineer position. The interview consisted of three rounds: coding, system design, and behavioral.

In the coding round, I was asked to solve LeetCode problems related to data structures and algorithms. For system design, I had to design a scalable architecture for a feature similar to Snapchat Stories. The interviewers were very engaging and provided feedback throughout the process, which I appreciated. The behavioral interview focused on my past experiences, team collaboration, and how I handle challenges.

Overall, it was a positive experience, and I am looking forward to hearing back from them soon.
