I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Snowflake in Jan 2024
Interview
Highly technical, it was much less business focus than expected. In fact by not being an expert in their platform but understanding the business problem better than they did wasnt enough.
HR round followed by technical round which never happened. Recruiter reached out for an open role, had an initial screening call after which they said they would want to schedule a technical round. A week of silence and sent a generic rejection email after that.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
questions about past experience and why work at Snowflake
Recruiter didn't even come for screening. I was on the zoom call for 20 minutes. Complete waste of time. This company has no regard for others time. Would not recommend even applying here.
First interview with the hiring manager, discussing motivation and previous experience.
Second technical round, very broad questions on AI/ML/SQL. It seems that I didn't pass this round as I never got a feedback from them.
