Very fast and professional, communication was smooth.
Went through 4 rounds of interview, no verbal offers were made but the result came back fairly quickly.
Be sure to prepare and understand what the company is and display that to the interviewers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What's something you would do to change the product?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at TikTok (Santa Monica, CA) in Sep 2020
Interview
I was reached out to by a recruiter, I said I was interested, it took a while to connect to the recruiter. I spoke with the recruiter and the conversation was great. Then I spoke to a team member that had nothing to do with the role i was interviewing for and she wasn’t going to partner a lot with (odd).
I candidly felt like I wasted my time, that they were fishing for ideas from me, and not interested at all in listening to my background or experience. Sure, if I wasn’t a fit for the role then, that’s okay, and I know I’m not going to get feedback. However, my last interview was about 3 weeks ago and I haven’t heard back from anyone nor gotten an automated system generated email rejection. With that said, I haven’t heard anything back and don’t intend to apply or consider Tik-Tok in the future. I understand the uncertainty of everything but a simple note would have been appreciated and interviewer beware.
