I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Twitch (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2014
Interview
Submitted my resume via email. I heard back from them with a coding problem to solve. Submitted a solution to to that. They got back to me the same day and scheduled a phone interview right away. The phone interview was completely coding and technical and lasted about 45 min. After a couple of days they had a positive feedback about the phone screen and invited me onsite for more interviews the next week. They set me up in a nice hotel in downtown SF.
I had 4 1:1 interviews. All are coding interviews. The first interviewer gave my a tour of the company. After a couple of interviews I met the team I was interviewed for over the lunch. Each interview was more difficult than the previous. At the end, I had a chat with the manager.
I received an email from the HR the very next day to schedule a call to convey the interview result.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All the coding problems had multiple ways to the solution.
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.
