Process
I received a reply the next day of my application, and was told to take a test in Codility.
I was asked to solve two tasks within 240 minutes. I scored well, though I may have missed a few test cases for one task.
I was filtered to the second round, which was a technical phone interview using Coderpad. It was scheduled immediately with no delay after checking my availability.
They changed the schedule twice.
The second round was scheduled for an hour, but it lasted for 30-40 minutes. They asked a few behavioral and one technical question.
He told me the recruiter would reach out with feedback.
I received an email with no offer after three days.

Twitch Work Experiences
- 2.0Real Life Twitch ChatSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesFebruary 4, 2016Pros: - Gamer's haven with PC and console rooms, arcade, and live esports viewing. - Food, perks/benefits, and time off.Cons: Twitch as a company largely reflects its online culture: gamers with egos larger than their talent creating a disorganized workspace where the louder your scream, the more you get noticed. Quite literally, the internal chat could be a snapshot of Twitch chat. If you like to game, argue, and fight, you'll love it here. Upper management has lost control of the company; people say and do whatever they want. Imagine an environment where directors/VPs set the precedent of yelling, screaming, and throwing fits over a game. Imagine an environment where angry gamers never learned to behave; that's Twitch. If you want a professional environment to develop and grow, you're better off looking somewhere else.
- 4.0Good company, minimal growthSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesJune 6, 2025Pros: Good work-life balance, strong teams around.Cons: The company makes very little money.
- 5.0Amazing Culture, UnderpaidSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeAugust 16, 2018Pros: Twitch isn’t perfect, but it really beats any other workplace by a wide margin from top to bottom. We have a founder-CEO who’s taken Twitch from an idea to a startup to an acquisition to a strategic arm of AWS, and still sits in our (brand-new) office working alongside everyone in the company. We have a strong female presence among upper management (CMO, COO, some VPs). We have managers who are subject matter experts and actually care for the people under them. I’m excited by the challenges of my job and I feel motivated by the people around me. The company has changed so much in the past 3 years that I barely recognize it, but I’m still impressed by the caliber of my peers.Cons: Pay just isn’t on par with top tech companies in the area.
