First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at X.
Senior Analyst
I was asked some really good questions, but there was a limit on the characters for each answer. I told them I didn't have a character limit and kept on going in a series of verbal Tweets. This was some time ago, back when Twitter was still Twitter.
- Are you afraid of Elon Musk?
Policy Analyst
Applied online and got an email for an initial call with a recruiter. After that, there were 5 interviews with different people and a written exam. The whole process took a long time because it took forever to schedule the interviews. It wasn't anything super out of the ordinary, just standard questions. The process was long but not really stressful.
- Why are you interested in working at Twitter?
Performance Analyst
I applied online and a recruiter quickly contacted me. She was really nice and clear about the job. We then scheduled a phone interview, followed by an assignment. The recruiter maintained good communication throughout this phase. I was then invited for an in-person interview where I met with 3 or 4 interviewers. After the interview, I was told they'd let me know about the next steps the following week. However, weeks went by and I heard nothing. I tried reaching out to the recruiter and another person I interviewed with multiple times, but the recruiter never replied to my emails. Over a month later, I received a rejection email. The recruiter's lack of response was unprofessional. Honestly, I think Twitter has issues with diversity in hiring, and that was probably the problem. I was highly qualified and interviewed well. I hope Twitter will one day truly embrace diversity to reflect its user base.
- What motivates you to seek employment at Twitter?
