I am interviewing at Twitter in a few weeks and will undergo their topgrading process.

I have read about the process of topgrading and am prepared to talk about my work history in detail.

What is the experience like?
Any surprises?

Are candidates required to arrange phone calls with their references?

TC: 310, yoe: 9

    Be prepared to answer a question like, “If we could get [your old boss] on the phone right now, what would they say your strengths and weaknesses were?” for each role and follow up behavioral questions. It was pretty intense. They don’t just want you to show you can talk about your technical experience, but to show growth throughout your career.

  • Fairly straightforward honestly. Be ready to talk about why you moved between positions and projects, hopefully showing growth and increased scope. Also questions about « what would your manager or colleagues say as your strengths and weaknesses »

    OP
    Thank you. Sounds hard, I have no weaknesses to speak of. (Of course this is satire.)
