Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

This was completely nonsensical and a waste of time.

I still cannot understand why the interviewer would reject me.

The question was incredibly straightforward, and I was very clear with my answers.

I had one hiccup when my indices were off by 1, but in the end, the interviewer said that the algorithm was perfect and as optimal as it could get.

I ran it on a couple of test cases.

They never judged me based on my personality, so I don't understand what else they were looking at.

It was two college graduates who seemed more confused than I was.

I think Snap really needs to reevaluate its hiring process.

I was looking forward to my next stage.
