Through November 1, Twitter Dublin is accepting applications using #OneTweetCV, inviting jobseekers to share their CV in a unique way: through one tweet.
Our company culture directly aligns with its purpose as a platform — a place for discovery, self-expression and human connection. At Twitter, we have created an environment where people are actually encouraged to bring their authentic selves and their passions to work.
Once here, our employees have a myriad of opportunities to grow new skills and deepen those they already possess. Above all, we have created a place where employees come together as empowered individuals for the strength of the collective.
As a product, Twitter brings you closer to others. As an employer, Twitter does the same. We often hear employees say, “I joined Twitter, and I joined a family.”
Working at Twitter offers you a chance to think about fascinating, intricate and important challenges everyday. At Twitter, your work will be immediately felt by many millions of people around the globe.
The open exchange of information can have a positive impact on the world. We run our company with that principle in mind everyday; each employee has a voice and a chance to innovate. We have raucous weekly all-hands meetings where tough questions are asked and answered because we maintain a culture of openness and trust from the inside out.
Job satisfaction comes down to being able to do what you love while collaborating with talented people on a shared mission. Sound intriguing? Let’s talk.
Our employees tell us that the most important benefit we offer is the work itself—the chance to solve interesting problems while having a positive impact on the world. We also offer a long list of benefits, including:

At Twitter, we're shaking things up. The Twitter Intersectionality, Culture and Diversity Team (ICD) launched the #GrowTogether strategy in September 2017. Our mission is to power positive global change by fostering respectful conversations, creating deeper human connections, and encouraging diverse interactions among individuals and teams, across our organization, and on the platform resulting in a more globally inclusive culture and more globally diverse workforce.
We’re more alike than we think. But, we’re also pretty complex. We come from families and communities with varied interests, viewpoints, and backgrounds which all weave together to make us, us.
We all gravitate to places where we can be our true selves. An inclusive culture is important in the workplace, and beyond. So, just be you. We respect it. Review the complete list of Twitter's Affinity Groups and Business Resource Groups, their individual missions, and details on how to get involved.
Creating a diverse workforce takes teamwork! We’re learning and respecting our intersectionality and building a culture we can all take part in. The rest is up to every Tweep to make it happen.
Our philanthropic mission is to reflect and augment the power of Twitter and the talents of our employees through direct civic engagement, employee volunteerism, charitable contributions, in-kind donations, and by harnessing the Twitter service for good.
We engage with policymakers, governmental entities, and civil society in markets throughout the world to advance public policy issues of importance to our users, employees, and shareholders.
We actively engage in United States policy issues and voter registration initiatives that will impact you, the company, and our platform.
We share a biannual Twitter Transparency Report with email privacy practices, legal requests we’ve received, and the action we’ve taken.

Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Twitter (Boulder, CO) in November 2019.
Interview
Overall, really positive interview experience.
Had an initial call with the hiring manager, did a great job explaining the "why" of the project and team.
Technical phone interview on HackerRank, pretty typical coding exercise, medium to hard difficulty.
On-site interview had two more coding exercises, one was really challenging and the other was very simple, as well as a system design interview, and then lastly a leadership/behavioral interview. Throughout the interviews, everyone was very friendly and engaged, not combative like some other places I've interviewed. I also had lunch with a few folks not on the interview panel, food and conversation were both great.
Throughout the entire process, from the first call to the offer negotiation, my recruiters were exceptional. I felt valued, informed, and welcomed.
Suggestion: highly recommend reviewing Twitter's existing architecture in prep for the system design, lot of good videos and articles on the web that would through parts of it.
Only negative is that each team's interview process seems different, so YMMV, and my experience doesn't reflect the same as other people I know that have interviewed at Twitter.
