Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). Fui entrevistado pela Snap (San Francisco, CA) em jul. de 2019
Entrevista
One of the worst companies (close to Airbnb) when hiring (questionwise).
Their code questions are not meaningful. Their interviewers are young and inexperienced so they will ask the hardest question they find in leetcode. That mean that if you get hired you will be working with few very smart people and many lucky people who were lucky to review those problems before.
You can see why Google, Facebook or Amazon are the best on hiring process. Their questions are hard but they not that hard that can not be completed if you have never seen the problem before.

Pergunta 1
Basic calculator III
Leetcode 772
Just a matter of parsing, executing symbols and recursive call the function when (). However, if you have never done this problem, comming up with a working code for the first time in 45 min, without a real debugger, becomes impossible.
If you are lucky enough to have practiced it on leetcode, you will produce the code in no time.
That's the people Snapchat is hiring....
Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Snap (Santa Monica, CA).
Entrevista
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.

Pergunta 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.
