I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Snapsheet (Chicago, IL) in Jul 2019
Interview
HR phone screen, 1 hour technical phone interview with coding challenge, 3+ hour technical onsite. Overall very negative experience. The company ultimately did not hire me due to my experience level, despite knowing my experience the entire process. They initially reached out to me, I did not apply. They scheduled a final "interview feedback" call with me after the onsite for 5 days in the future, to let me know over the phone that they would not be giving me an offer. None of the interviews consisted of anything other than technical questions and they did not seem interested in knowing if I would be a good culture fit. They repeatedly rescheduled calls and interviews with me, including the final call to just tell me they would not be giving me an offer. Completely unprofessional experience.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Snapsheet in May 2026
Interview
I was reached out to by a 3rd party recruiter.
First step was a hackerrank. 3 pretty easy questions (Basic SQL Join, Leetcode Easy algo, and a simple REST API call)
Second step: Quick tech screening with an engineer. Implement a stack that tracks the median value.
I was told I made it through this round and had a final round scheduled for 1.5 weeks out. The day before the interview was scheduled the recruiter emailed me and told me that their headcount was full and they didn't want to interview me anymore. Maybe it was a coordination problem, but it felt incredibly disrespectful to the hours of investment I put into this company.
I had the first meeting which was with their recruiter. In this meeting they share detailed information about the company and the position and allow for me to ask questions I had about the position. Afterwards they asked about my experience.
