I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at TikTok in Sep 2024
Interview
An OA with multiple choice questions and 2 pretty hard questions. I got a correct solution but I got the "Time Limit Exceeded" message. I was not able to continue pass that stage in the interview process.

Question 1
Multiple Choice Questions, 2 Leetcode Hard questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at TikTok (Singapore)
Interview
Three rounds of interviews and an assessment.
First round: Hr interview
Then the assessment.
Second round: Interview with two team managers.
Fail. Unable to proceed to the final round of the interview.
I interviewed for two different roles. In both cases, the interviewer joined 8–9 minutes late, which was still within the stated policy (beyond 10 minutes would require notifying HR). The interviewers were friendly, but the overall impression felt somewhat rushed.
Key parts such as a proper self-introduction were missing, and there were instances where the interviewer switched to their native language. In addition, the interviews ended significantly earlier than scheduled — instead of the planned 30 minutes, they lasted only about 12–15 minutes.
There was no proactive follow-up communication. After a long waiting period, I only received a rejection after sending a follow-up email; otherwise, my application seemed to remain inactive.
I also had the impression that coordination on the HR side was not always very consistent, as there were occasional errors or unclear communication during the process.
Overall, the experience was not very positive.
