REVIEW: Chirp micro-blog site Twitter first Developer Conference in San Francisco in time for April 14 (Beijing time on April 15) held a meeting of the Twitter engineers from China Sina science and technology to tell the company of his happy life in Twitter.

Wang, Hebei, and last year, after graduate school in the United States joined the Twitter company, currently working in real-time search sector, work long 6 months, in his department in a total of 10 staff and has been considered on Twitter in relatively large sectors.

With the rapid rise of Twitter in recent years, some U.S. investment company has reached its valuation of 1.7 billion, to enter such a venture company to become the dream of most young people. Similar to the most outstanding young men into the top companies, Wang who is full of confidence and vigor, about to join Twitter in mind, Wang said that in this high-growth companies can be more play to their own ability to have more development opportunities, the same company will have a stronger potential growth potential.

relative to the familiar Microsoft, Google and other complicated interview process, Twitter seems to have been a simple interview, a total divided into two rounds, the first round of technical discussions, and founder of the second round for the other executive meeting. For the initial interview process, Wang still seems fresh in my memory, "they will not grabbed a single technical problem, then ask the end of poverty is a very easy interview."

Wang said, Twitter is a day at work planned in advance, long before the company had planned this quarter and next quarter what to do, and then under each task assigned to each group (team) and going, and then group further refinement to the individual, more flexible work plan, the weekend will not force the overtime.

the content of each work day can be divided into two parts, under the present circumstances is to resolve issues arising (bug), part of the development in accordance with plans to complete development tasks for the future. Although each person within the company have a fixed position, but will always be about offering job-change, so everyone will come into contact with, such as monitoring, analysis, and many other front-end and back-office work, cross-sectoral collaboration between the work very much.

According to Twitter CEO Evan? Williams (Evan Williams) according to data released, Twitter now employs 175 people, half of them engineers, according to Wang introduced his colleagues are very good, often than expected to complete the task, in addition to outside engineers are also included anti-security, anti-phishing, market and other departments.

Twitter company's culture is very open and transparent, "Our CEO Evan? Williams can call out the names of all of our employees." Wang said proudly, "and that the company will make every Staff enjoy a sense of ownership, let all employees know the company in advance of impending events, such as acquisitions or new executive candidates, every employee also knows that other people are doing, the company for every employee is given adequate trust, of course, for the company employees will keep a secret. "

for Twitter with Google, Yahoo and Microsoft will be in the search for cooperation in a timely manner, Wang believes that by engaging with their daily work and no competing with each other will not affect the contrary, the new Twitter user for a greater role in promoting development.

Twitter a week ago launched Promoted Tweets advertising platform has become the second hottest topic in the General Assembly on Chirp, and for its internal staff, in addition to its advertising platform beyond as the company will be as the product to efficiency measure, Wang said, Promoted Tweets platform development cycle took only a few months, far beyond previous expectations of the company, because just on the line, so it is unclear how effective.
