I applied online. I interviewed at Twilio in Jan 2024
Interview
The first interview with recruiter was amazing. The girl was so interested in helping me. The second was awful. The senior engineer that interviewed me was not really paying attention to what I was saying. He only was like texting with someone else. I asked some questions an he was not able to give me a proper answer. At the end he just told me to explain what would I do to improve the code, an quit de interview unexpectedly.

I applied online and recruiter contacted me and sent hacker rank test on Java which I passed. Next my interview got scheduled with Hiring Manager and he told me the job was on Nodejs and described job functions and responsibilities. He told me the next steps in interview process and someone would schedule the interviews. I tried to follow up with recruiter and interview coordinator. But, they ghosted me. Waste of time!!
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Twilio in Sept 2022
Interview
I reached out to HR from LinkedIn. Got an Online Assessment scheduled which I had to submit within 48 hours. After 15 days got a call for the next round of interviews. All rounds were non-elimination rounds, this gave 360-degree view of my skills. And the result was decided on basis of all the rounds.
The interview process was good and very flexible. The interviewers were very good and kept the interview very comfortable.
