I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Twitch (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Standard non-technical screen with recruiter that lead to a 1 hour technical phone screen. Technical phone screen question wasn’t too hard, standard medium level leetcode questions. Made a few mistakes that I fixed as I solved the problem, and ultimately arrived at an optimal and working solutions within a reasonable amount of time.
However, entire process between HR and the technical screen was convoluted and unorganized. Last minute changes to my interviewer and time slot, confusion about role details, etc. Twitch never even got back to me about my technical interview results. I emailed them a few times and they didn’t reply. Unprofessional to waste candidates time...

Question 1
Standard leetcode medium level question involving arrays.
I passed the Codesignal pre-screen and was invited to an intro call. The intro call included behavioral questions which I didn’t expect so I was not able to give good answers. The recruiter seemed cold and disengaged, he did not answer my email about interview process and did not turn on camera during the call, probably typical for big companies due to high volume of candidates.
At first I got the call from the recruiter for the screening process. Asked about the things on the resume work I did before. Then progressed to assesment round that consisted of OOPS coding question.
