Process

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks.

Interview process had a technical screening round with two one-hour interviews. Each interview started with a LeetCode question and was also asked to execute the code on CoderPad. The question was medium but had a follow-up question which was hard.

Questions

For the technical screening, I was asked two coding rounds, each with a medium LeetCode question with a hard follow-up.

The Snowflake LeetCode list is comprehensive, but be prepared to go in-depth for improving a solution.

I was also asked about HTTP error codes, which ones are retriable, and a discussion on exponential backoff and jitter.
