      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at X in Aug 2021

      The interviewer asked me about binary trees for a DE, Business intelligence role..not sure who's actually doing that in their day to day work as a business intelligence or data engineer.

      Data Engineer Interview

      Jun 11, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at X (San Francisco, CA) in May 2019

      Interview

      The hiring process at Twitter, takes me about 2+ months and finally shows the worst thing that could happen for a candidate - Break their own words without respect. I have been redirected back and forth for quite a long time, to talk with 3 managers, and passed 2 phone interviews, and the HR has formally emailed me that "Congrats! Twitter decides to bring you onsite soon". Then after I talked with the person who supposed to schedule the travel and onsite date, suddenly I get informed that the team fills the position and we continue to try to find you a fit (which they didn't). The outcome of the interview process just makes me feel awful. If you cannot do an onsite for a candidate, even it is not because he/she is not good enough, let them know in time. Breaking the word is the worst thing you could do to a candidate.

      Question 1

      Trie, hashmap + arraylist, simple Scala questions
