I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at TikTok (Vancouver, BC) in Sept 2024
Interview
Got asked multiple choice questions and leetcode. The questions were around medium level difficulty, make sure to brush up on your DSA. I also would like to note that there's not much else just killing space
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me about finding the largest product of the list
Phone screen where the recruiter asked questions about my background, why I'm interested in TikTok etc. Also asked a question about a technical project I've worked on in a team.
There was an OA and then 2 rounds of interviews afterwards. 1st round was technical with LC med and basic CS concepts, 2nd round was behavioral questions with hiring manager.
TikTok’s interview process usually starts with an application and recruiter screen, followed by an assessment or technical test, several interviews with team members and hiring managers, and a final decision or offer. The exact number of rounds depends on the role, location, and whether it is technical or non-technical.
