TikTok Interview Experiences
Senior MLE
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. This is a phone screen. After I chatted with the recruiter, they arranged the first round of the interview. It's a one-hour interview including: - Resume deep dive (20 mins) - Coding (20 mins)
Software Engineer (Internship)
A few days after applying, I received an online assessment from TikTok. It was definitely one of the hardest online assessments I have ever done, even in comparison to FAANG and other big companies.

A recruiter reached out to me. I failed on the first-round technical interview. There was one LeetCode medium and one LeetCode medium-to-hard problem. I did not solve the second one. However, they are looking for someone who can solve both.
