I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Snap (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2019
Interview
Overall very smooth. One technical phone screen, onsite was pretty standard (3 coding, 1 design). Lunch interview we went to Pink Door, which was kind of fancy and unexpected.
Overall experience was very positive and I am very positive of the outlook of the company based on my experience. Almost joined them.
I applied online. I interviewed at Snap (Santa Monica, CA)
Interview
So I applied through a recruiter who was probably the best part of this sad process. The recruiter liked me and after a 2nd interview gave me an interview with Snapchat. I had a phone interview with one of their producers, it seemed to go well since I got a call an hour later stating that they wanted to do an in-person interview. That's fine. So they give the recruiter the address and it turns out to be the wrong address. I call up the recruiter and we finally get a definite address in Santa Monica. That turns out to be the wrong one too! Luckily, the person at the second address knew the address and sent me there. I was on time but it was still frustrating.
After an interview which consisted of a small snapchat story test, they asked me about myself and what brought me there. They said that they would call me the same week to let me know but never did, and also did not call me back when I tried to follow up.
