I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at TikTok (Los Angeles, CA) in Aug 2021
Interview
The interview was pretty easy and I actually got to the third round. It seemed like they really liked me and in my last interview she had asked if I'd be able to sign paperwork for hire within the next two days. They made it seem like I had got the job, but I kept waiting... A week passes by and I receive an email that they decided to move on with a different candidate. Bummer.... felt like I was mislead. Don't know if they usually string people along and waste their time
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at TikTok (Kuala Lumpur) in Oct 2025
Interview
The interview is organised and all communicated thorough email. The sourcer or TA very easy to work with too. Eventho the process abit slow but I do understand in terms of recruitment processing, sometimes it may takes time to do a decision.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
My previous experience and how to handle certain situations
hr call and 2-3 leader round generally will take 1-2 weeks to get the final result
i think that is the overall process, but it depends on which job level you are in and also if you are the IC role or leader role
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
career path?

past experience review
Applied through a referral and a recruiter reached out to me via email. 2 rounds of virtual interviews and got the offer after the 2nd with hiring manager. The offer process was easy and the start date was very quick about 1 week after getting the offer. Asked to defer for another week which they approved.
