I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Snap (New York, NY) in Jun 2020
Interview
The interviewer was nice and easygoing. It was a very enjoyable conversation. I was asked one technical (coding) question and the interviewer helped me to solve it out when I got stuck. However, it still took me some time to figure it out.

Applied online. Recruiter reached out to set up a time. 1 hour video call phone screen. Received a rejection email 2 days after the phone screen. Basic software engineering interview, interviewer seemed preoccupied halfway through and was answering slack messages (could hear the sound)
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Snap (Los Angeles, CA) in Jun 2020
Interview
Got contacted by a recruiter and set an interview date 5 days later. Had 2 virtual technical interviews with 2 engineers(one conducting, 1 observing) for each. Both 1 hour long, no breaks, although promised one. I only got asked my tech background in the first one and about me in the second one(yes, that's it). Used hackerrank.com to code.
The first coding question was a mess, the recruiter couldn't even explain himself properly and didn't understand c++ although that was the full list of requirements for the job. The second interview part was amazing. The person conducting was very professional and answered all my questions thoroughly.
I wasn't able to finish the first coding question due to the extreme confusion but I completed the second.
2 days later, I got an email saying they were not giving me an offer and I shouldn't ask for feedback because they wouldn't give me any.
