1. There is an initial call with the Recruiter
2. Then there is a Case Study with a Product Manager
3. Then the Hiring Manager interview - another case study and some background questions
4. Final Round - Panel
The biggest issue with twitter is that recruiters and hiring manager have NO empathy. The first scheduled interview I had the interviewer DID NOT SHOW UP. I emailed the recruiter 10 min in and he didn't reply for 1 hour to let me know the interviewer forgot to show up. Then they had to reschedule it for TWO WEEKS later. Then the recruiter accidently scheduled my hiring manager call for 30 min instead of 1 hour and the hiring manager rushed through my interview and immediately failed me because he couldn't get through all his questions. When I brought this up to the recruiter that I didn't have a fair shot - he essentially said that they had an internal candidate in the mix and they were using me for benchmarking. Very poor brand representation for Twitter.
also DO NOT BE FOOLED. If they reach out to you first, which happened to me, it's usually to prove they have compared you with an internal candidate just to choose the internal candidate. This happened to me 2 times and to several of my friends as well. Make sure to confirm that there is not internal candidate in the mix.

How would you build a system that detects adult content on the twitter platform? Design a program to handle regulations for different countries? How would you define success metrics of X product?
I interviewed for a role at Twitter and it was a terrible experience. The hiring manager was completely uninterested in my qualifications or experience, and instead asked me a series of 'Google-style' questions like how many golf balls fit in a bathtub. Whenever I tried to answer, he would interrupt me, belittle my response, and explain how his approach was better. It was incredibly unprofessional and disrespectful. I felt like he was more interested in proving how smart he was than in finding the right candidate for the job. I would not recommend applying for a role at Twitter if you're looking for a fair and respectful hiring process.
straightforward, 3 interviews, situational and behavioral and asked about past experience and learnings from older companies. i had a pleasent experience and spoke to folks from both my team and sf hq

Lots of waiting for interview scheduling. Interviewed with 5 different individuals, and then a final one was added on. It took about 2.5 months to go through all the rounds only to be told by the recruiter (via standard email) that I was not moving forward.
