Interview Process
The onsite interview at Snapchat lasted about 4 hours and consisted of multiple rounds with different interviewers. The interviewers were friendly and encouraging, which made me feel comfortable throughout the process.
The first round was a technical interview focusing on data structures and algorithms, where I was asked to solve a problem related to arrays and explain my thought process while coding.
The second round was a system design interview where I had to design a notification system, discussing various aspects of scaling and potential bottlenecks.
Finally, I had a behavioral interview where I discussed my previous projects and how I handle teamwork and conflicts in a team setting. Overall, it was a comprehensive interview process allowing me to showcase my skills.
Technical Questions
- Two Sum (Array, Hash Table)

Tips & Insights
Be prepared to explain your thought process clearly during technical interviews and to discuss your previous experiences in detail during behavioral interviews.
