      Software Engineer Interview

      Oct 10, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at X (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      I am very happy with my recruiter and coordinator, as they were very helpful and responded quickly. But Twitter lacks a system of choosing eligible interviewers and a standard for interview questions. The phone interview is super easy, more like a freshman CS101 stuff. Then I was invited onsite with 4 rounds of technical interviews and 1 round of culture fit interview. One of the interviewers was 8 minutes late for my 45 minute session, and he can't really speak good English. He looked really geeky and didn't know how to start a conversation. So I started to introduce myself and my projects and he didn't control the pace at all. With only 20 minutes left, he asked me to wrote a maze generation. For god's sake, my friend actually wrote a maze game before and it took him a week. I would say this interview question is too hard to be finished in 20 minutes if you didn't not see the problem before or even not memorized the code. So I guess you just need to get some kind of luck to get a good interviewer. My friend was asked reversing a string and factorial number when she was onsite.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at X

      Interview

      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.
