      Senior JavaScript Engineer Interview

      16 Dec 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Twitch (New York, NY)

      Interview

      Had a phone screen with a recruiter before the technical phone screen. Technical phone screen was straight forward, basically asked how to parse information out of a stream and return sorted results with the smallest time complexity. Then got asked for an onsite, which was pretty long. Had 6 different interviewers, including a video chat with a coderpad. From what I hear Twitch does two types of interviews, either build focused or algorithm focus. I had a build focused interview. Two of the interviews were behavioral ("tell me about a time when...") and product focused (mostly role playing, somewhat anecdotal). The other four started from the resume and migrated to coding based questions, three of which I was required to write code solutions. I heard results two days after the interview.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Design an API that would get user data and play a video based on a specific stream url.

      Question 2

      Senior JavaScript Engineer Interview

      19 Apr 2016
      Anonymous employee
      San Francisco, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Twitch (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2015

      Interview

      The interview process was pretty smooth. After a quick call with the recruiter, they set up a phone screen and then moved on to the on-site, which was a good mix of technical questions and chats about both myself and Twitch. I really felt like they spent a good amount of time making sure that I could learn about the company rather than just constantly grilling me.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      If you were a product manager at Twitch, how would improve the product to make subscriptions more beneficial to our users?
