Colloquio
I was referred by a friend. The recruiter contacted me shortly, asked why Twitter, what I would like to work on and if I had any time constraints.
I was shortly scheduled 2 phone interviews consisting both on talking about my projects and interests and also CS problems, writing code online. Both interviews allowed time for any questions and short discussions afterwards.
Then I had 6 on-site interviews with back-end people (that's what I opted for). They mostly consisted of whiteboard coding and some let me write on the computer. Some were CS questions some architectural and backend.
I recommend preparing for it, read about algorithms and be confortable writing code both online (though just a text editor - no feedback) and on a whiteboard. Depending on what you are applying for be prepared for architectural / design questions too.
Overall everybody was really nice and have a very positive perception. I got to ask about some of their challenges and discuss their solutions.
Phone screen, followed by two coding rounds, one system design, and one HM/behavioral round. Prepare with LeetCode tagged questions related to data structures, algorithms, and system design topics. Prepare for Behavioural in STAR method.

Colloquio
Went through two screenings and virtual onsite. Technical team members were friendly and great to speak with. Recruiters were pretty awful - the one that set up the virtual onsite gave everybody different zoom links and trying to find the correct room to join really cut into my interview time and made me stressed out during the VO. Main recruiter scheduled a phone call to discuss results after the VO for when it was past midnight in my timezone but never called or responded to my followup.
To the recruiter: you don't need to try to keep me warm by scheduling a phone call and ghosting me when I only asked you whats the decision timeline. If its rejection just email to let me know instead of wasting more of my time especially when its late in my timezone.
In general this would've been a positive experience if the recruiters weren't so bad.
