Finding My Purpose: My Pathway to Twilio's Sales Team

The company's culture values diversity and encourages its employees to be authentic and bring their unique perspectives to work. In the sales team, Jill Barrientos found a supportive environment where she could share her own experiences and learn from others, including being selected as a Bar Raiser to assess cultural affinity with potential candidates.
