X interview questions

The initial call was from the HR explaining what the teams are and the different roles. Went on for about an hour. He was actually extremely informative and adept at answering my questions. This was followed by 2 phone screens. Both were bad in my case. Firstly, my interviewers called 10-15 minutes late. The interview was riddled with technical faults, network problems, call dropping. All in all, it was just a really bad experience.

Twitter reached out to me several times over the years. Most recently it was for an SRE position. I spoke with the team lead and had a nice positive conversation, then was set up for a screen with another SRE. Though I was told I would need to do live scripting with the other SRE, he decided not to do that with me, which was good, since I had told everyone along the way that my strength was not in scripting, and if the job required heavy scripting or coding or code analysis that I was not the right person for the job. Nonetheless, when it came to an in-person interview, it was all about scripting. I found that a bit frustrating and a waste of my time. In general, I felt that the right hand had no idea what the left hand was doing.
