I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at TikTok (Madrid) in Apr 2022
Interview
The interview process had five main stages:
Initial Screening: This was a 1-hour conversation with a Talent Acquisition specialist to see if my background was a good fit for the role.
Next, I had another 1-hour interview, this time with the department's Lead.
The third step involved presenting a project identifying a potential client and detailing what value it would bring to the platform.
I then presented this case study to both the Department Lead and another member of the Global team.
Final Feedback & Decision: The last step was a meeting with the Talent Manager to receive feedback and the final hiring decision.
