One of the worst process in India.
The hiring process is slow and pathetic, you need to call HR multiple times and most of the time the HR is on leave.
I have given all rounds and its been 15 days already with no response.
I guess I have wasted my 5 precious hours and energy.

Question 1
Easy ds/algo questions.
The interviewer seemed dumb and non interested in interviewing

Average interview
Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Twilio (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2024
Interview
Went to final round, Recruiter was very attentive and would schedule prep calls between interview rounds to check in, which was very helpful. All technical problems were of reasonable difficulty, and interviewers took a collaborative approach to presenting them.
Full interview process:
Hackerrank Challenge (100 mins)
- LC medium
Recruiter call (30 mins)
- standard behavioural questions
- looking for culture fit and "twilio magic" values in answers
Technical Screen (60 mins)
- 50/50 between coding and discussion
- easy problem that grows in complexity, interviewer wants to see how you adapt to growing requirements
"Final Round" gauntlet (3 * 60 mins)
- System design interview with HM; I was challenged to design a system to manage elevators
- REST/Backend interview; you're given an API to fetch from and process data
- Frontend/React interview; built a functional interface from boilerplate

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Twilio in Oct 2021
Interview
Great Interview experience. I really liked the fact that the interview was highly behavioral because that makes the interviewers deep-dive into how the candidate would be like to work with. I also liked the fact that there was little emphasis on programming/problem solving in interviews because that makes it a very stressful ambiance for the candidate, which is often driven by luck. Overall it was an amazing experience.

Question 1
Cannot mention due to NDA. But they were medium-level LC questions. There was also a System Design Round which was fairly manageable to complete within 45 minutes.
