The process was very friendly, honest and well organized, although a bit long. It required lots of meetings via Skype with employee working in a similar position around Europe. The final one was in persone with the potential reporting to.

Applied online, recruiter contacted and had screening call followed by a call with the hiring manager. I was then invited for an onsite interview. Once on site I was blown away by the facilities and the buzz but very discouraged by the confusion and chaos on strategy and direction. Clearly Twitter does a lot to create a cool environment - a l a Google - but without clarity of direction and a comparably profitable business model. Its like the coolness is put way before the concept of making money as a business. It seemed to me this company skews towards younger hipster type candidates with less experience but raw smarts. I was not invited for a second round. What struck me was their curiosity in getting as much out of me in terms of best practices I implemented at my existing employer, a very successful Internet company. They wanted it all, seemed a bit over the top! My biggest disappointment was they never closed the interview process to tell me I was not successful.
