      Design Engineer Interview

      Aug 18, 2023
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Snap (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      Step 1: Basic recruiter screen call asking about your past experiences and what you're looking for. Step 2: Hiring Manager call, nothing technical. Mostly to see if you'd be a good culture fit. Step 3: Technical interview with an engineer in engine of choice. This is not testing your skills in the engine, it's more math. Step 4: Get ghosted?

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1
