Process
Applied online for the position.
Got a call from the recruiter asking me to solve a coding challenge. It was the Twitch SpellChecker problem. Solved the problem and sent them the solution.
Got a call after a few days saying they wanted to move further with a phone screen.
Got a call from an engineer. He seemed nice and asked a pretty straightforward CS question. But I screwed up the question completely, so I blame myself for this.
Overall, the whole interview process was pretty solid and quick. Everyone was super nice, although I do feel that the whole coding challenge + phone screen is a bit too much, but hey, if it works for them, you cannot complain much.

- 1.0Company going sourSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesJuly 12, 2017Pros: Free food and drinks Gaming room Good work equipmentCons: Culture has changed with the growth of the company. Twitch was once a very positive place, which is turning sour. It's a very cliquey culture, and far too many people now default to saying no to everything, with a very negative outlook. Career growth opportunities are a joke. Companies small and large are eating Twitch's lunch, such as Discord, YouTube, and Facebook. Surprisingly, a large amount of people work at Twitch who do not use Twitch. RIP customer focus.
