I applied online. I interviewed at Twitch in Nov 2020
Interview
Technical phone screen followed by onsite of about 5 hours. Phone screen took 3 reschedulings due to continuous recruiter miscommunication between myself and the interviewer, but was pleasant (once it happened). Some of the people during the onsite seemed apathetic and uninterested - I had done OK, but it took me having to contact the multiple recruiters I spoke to along the way over 2.5 weeks to get any response or feedback.
I passed the Codesignal pre-screen and was invited to an intro call. The intro call included behavioral questions which I didn’t expect so I was not able to give good answers. The recruiter seemed cold and disengaged, he did not answer my email about interview process and did not turn on camera during the call, probably typical for big companies due to high volume of candidates.
At first I got the call from the recruiter for the screening process. Asked about the things on the resume work I did before. Then progressed to assesment round that consisted of OOPS coding question.
