HR scheduled multiple interview rounds with varying questions, including sourcing methods. Some interviewers displayed rudeness, creating a challenging experience despite the structured process.

1st call with a Recruiter 4 Recruiter: ~15 minute call that asked basic questions to get a feel of my previous experience. 2nd call with the Hiring Manager from Tik Tok: half hour call and went in depth about things on my resume. I actually had time to describe my process and the interviewer was engaging enough. I was able to ask questions and got a feel about the team and culture over at Tik Tok's SJ office. 3rd call was a video chat with another manager on the team. The interviewer asked me specific questions on my resume and gave me a couple of situational questions. Interviewer wanted me to go in depth about my sourcing techniques which was weird because it felt like they were only trying to get this information out of me. Overall the conversation went pretty well and they informed me about next steps. However after this they completely ghosted me. They use an external contracted recruiting coordinator that does not reply sometimes. Terrible.

Was chaotic and felt disorganized. Little communication around role and expectations. While the team was friendly, I felt they were stressed and uninvolved. Was not something I cared to follow-up with.
