I had a recruiter interview call. Asked about my background and experience. Upon review by the team they chose to go with different candidates. I would prefer if they had kept this call after making that decision, my resume had all the information to make this decision.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Snap (London, England) in Mar 2025
Interview
First round was quick, with the recruiter, it went very well. Second round with the lead of the team. They were very nice and asked deep Computer Vision related questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Snap (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2026
Interview
Had a lovely chat with the recruiter, they explained the interview process. Then did the tech screen and haven't heard back yet but don't believe I passed as I wasn't able to fully solve the problem.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
It was a Leetcode hard problem for a junior role, interviewer really had it out for me. It was a graph traversal with backtracking and some special cases where you could choose to visit a tile that's blocked up to x amount of tiles. Hope this helps other people and you get luckier with a more manageable problem!
