I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at TikTok in Sept 2023
Interview
Some coding questions related to array. My experience with the interviewer was quite positive, mainly due to their exceptional patience throughout the interview. As the interview progressed, there were moments when I felt a bit nervous and stumbled over my words or needed a moment to think about my responses.
