I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Twilio (Tallinn) in Feb 2021
Interview
The process was accelerated in my case as I was part of Twilio's hiring event. Everything was smooth and at every step it was very clear. I had a screening with the HR representative and after that four 45 minute interviews in the same day.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They required extensive knowledge of programming and had live coding tests. I was also asked for architectural problem solving.
I was given a take-home coding exercise, which was quite a bit more hefty than most others I've had. Sent a link to the public repo a few days later. The following week, the recruiter asked me to send the link I already sent. When I followed up the next week, I found that the recruiter's email bounced - they were no longer with the company. So I then emailed a higher-up, who passed me along to another recruiter, who I then sent my exercise to yet again. A rejection followed soon after with no feedback.
Phone screen and onsite with a few leetcode and system design questions. The overall process was professional and the recruiters did a good job of keeping me up to date.

Very friendly talent acquisition staff member, was given plenty of info for technical test, including what concepts would be asked. Had to do a systems design interview also and was given enough to prep for that.
