      Full Stack Software Engineer Interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Twilio (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2017

      Interview

      A recruiter reached out to me about a role that turned out not to be a fit, but the hiring manager suggested a different position with another team. That also turned out not to be a fit, but we agreed to stay in touch. A couple of weeks later, they reached back out about yet another role, and this time, I was invited on site after the phone screen. All three phone screens were fairly similar, just questions about my background and experience, what I was looking for, and telling me more about Twilio. The onsite was 4 hours of 30-45 minute interviews, except the coding portion which was 90 minutes. There was a mix of algorithmic, database/API design, frontend and behavioral questions, which felt well coordinated. I also received a schedule of who I would be meeting and the areas they would be focusing on a few days before. Everyone was welcoming and made me feel at ease. The recruiter kept me updated promptly throughout the whole process, and I appreciated that they appeared to care genuinely about finding a role I would be happy in.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Algorithm question (I was explicitly asked to talk through my thoughts collaboratively with the interviewers before writing code, and then to code my solution on their provided laptop)
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Database design question (talked through problem/solution collaboratively and drew on whiteboard)
