I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at X
Interview
Interview process included 2 phone screens and 1 day of onsite interviews. Phone screens were easy and I looked forward to the onsite interviews.
There were about 5 interviewers that day. They seemed generally unprepared and the first person I met was very rude. Totally gave me a bad impression of Twitter. I did not like their office (seemed very messy).
It took a long time for me to hear whether or not I would be hired. Overall, communication with their recruiters was VERY SLOW. Whole process took about 2 months. Again, I was not very impressed with Twitter. I probably would not have accepted even if I had gotten an offer.
Phone screen, followed by two coding rounds, one system design, and one HM/behavioral round. Prepare with LeetCode tagged questions related to data structures, algorithms, and system design topics. Prepare for Behavioural in STAR method.
Went through two screenings and virtual onsite. Technical team members were friendly and great to speak with. Recruiters were pretty awful - the one that set up the virtual onsite gave everybody different zoom links and trying to find the correct room to join really cut into my interview time and made me stressed out during the VO. Main recruiter scheduled a phone call to discuss results after the VO for when it was past midnight in my timezone but never called or responded to my followup.
To the recruiter: you don't need to try to keep me warm by scheduling a phone call and ghosting me when I only asked you whats the decision timeline. If its rejection just email to let me know instead of wasting more of my time especially when its late in my timezone.
In general this would've been a positive experience if the recruiters weren't so bad.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at X (London, England) in Apr 2025
