I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at TikTok (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2024
Interview
I participated in a Hacker Rank-style online assessment featuring two dynamic programming and graph theory problems, akin to LeetCode hard challenges. Months have passed without any response. Extremely difficult and unforgiving amount of time to do the challenges.
