J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Twilio (Chicago, IL) en avr. 2024
Entretien
The process moved very quickly, and I got the feedback same or next day. As for the stages - (1) Manager Screen, then (2) Hiring Manager. If you pass hiring manager, you get to the (3) final stage which consists of 4 back-to-back interviews with team members - Design, Product, Program, and Engineering.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
How do you collaborate with designers?
Tell me about a time you experimented
Your most innovative project, how you led it, how did you work with engineers. They want to hear how you communicate in writing since this is a big thing.
Asked me about a project which was highly related to the role - just walk through what I did, what was the result, would I have done anything differently, why or why not?
Program manager wanted to hear how I run projects. Should have been prepared with a LOT more detail - he wanted to dive into how I wrote the PRD in detail.
Emailed saying they closed the position for 2 months and then reopened it. Really made me skeptical of the org. structure if they weren't sure whether or not they needed the role in the first place.

Entretien
Five interviewers from various functions across the company.
There was disagreement among my interviewers about what the role for which I was interviewing "should be," making a transition from one interview session to another fairly difficult.
One interviewer even felt that many of the responsibilities for which I was interviewing should be under their purview.
Offer was lost to an internal candidate, which I heard also occurred to a former colleague for another area of R&D this winter.
Company seems to be in a high state of transition.
Two interviewers mentioned difficulty "getting anything done" due to the lack of processes across teams, especially between original Twilio and the recent acquisitions.
So there was some discussion on being able to get things done without authority over others. They emphasized, repeatedly, the lack of processes and that the company doesn't really seem invested in changing this.
