Interview Process
I applied for a Software Engineer position at Snapchat and went through a rigorous interview process. The first step was a technical phone screen, where I was asked about my background and a few coding questions.
During the onsite interviews, there were four rounds. The first round focused on system design, where I was asked to design a video-sharing app. In the second round, I had to solve algorithmic challenges, including problems related to data structures. The last two rounds were behavioral interviews, where they assessed my team collaboration skills and problem-solving approach.
Technical Questions
- Find the intersection of two arrays (Array, HashSet)
- Implement a binary search algorithm (Array, Binary Search)
- Design a caching mechanism (Design)
Tips & Insights
Overall, I felt the interviews went well, but I was still waiting for feedback.
