      Talent Acquisition Interview

      3 Apr 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at TikTok

      Interview

      3 rounds, HR, Hiring Manager 1, Hiring Manager 2. Tests on boolean searches in both English and Mandarin, as well as technical questions to get an understanding of your TA abilities. Interviewers were kind but could tell that they are not the most open to fresh grad hires. Could tell that there is likely a high KPI as well.

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at TikTok (Los Angeles, CA)

      Interview

      The process was 4 rounds. The interview team was prepared for each step of the process, and the team had great communication with me throughout. I felt that they cared about their process.

      Talent Acquisition Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at TikTok (Seattle, WA)

      Interview

      I advanced to the final round of interviews but was ultimately disappointed by the experience. The interviewer was extremely cold and serious, lacking any real human connection, making the conversation feel more like an interrogation than a professional exchange. One of the most frustrating aspects was the complete lack of transparency around key details, especially salary and compensation. Even at the final stage, they didn’t share this critical information, which should be a priority to avoid wasting candidates' time if it’s a deal breaker. The second-round interview was also strange – they repeated similar questions from the first round but with even fewer details, making the process feel redundant and unstructured. Additionally, after submitting my updated resume to an HR representative, they seemed careless and unprofessional, showing little effort in understanding my latest experience. This lack of attention made it feel like there was minimal effort spent on finding the right candidate. Finally, they require signing a contract through a third-party company, which feels unnecessary and raises questions about stability. Even if you’re re-signed, I heard the resignation rate for this position remains relatively low at the company, which doesn’t inspire confidence in long-term growth. Overall, the lack of clarity, redundancy, and inattentive communication were disappointing, and I’d advise future candidates to be cautious.
