Post body I have both screening rounds coming up with Snowflake and wanted to sanity-check expectations with anyone who has interviewed recently. 1. System design screen * Is it more high-level discussion on Infra or a deeper design exercise? * What kinds of problems did they focus on (data systems, distributed systems, APIs, storage, etc.)? 1. Coding screen * For the coding round, is practicing Snowflake-tagged / frequently asked LeetCode problems generally enough? * Any common patterns you noticed (arrays/strings, trees/graphs, concurrency, SQL-ish logic)? * Difficulty relative to standard LC medium vs hard? Would really appreciate any recent experiences or guidance on how deep to prepare for each!
