I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Twitch (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2021
Interview
The interview process started with an original call with the recruiter which seemed to go well. I then had a technical phone screen followed by a virtual onsite. On the technical portion of the interviews I did quite well. I answered every question optimally. I came to find out they decided not to continue with my application due to lack of experience which left somewhat of a bad taste in my mouth. I'm not sure why they didn't just mention this originally and waste my time with interviews and an onsite since they knew my experience level from the start. Overall though the team I talked to was really nice and I did enjoy interviewing at Twitch.
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.
