J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez TikTok (Sydney) en avr. 2025
Entretien
First round technical interview was a medium Leetcode done live. The answer involved turning a nested loop into a looped binary search.
We then moved on to a discussion of solving certain scaling and technical performance problems at the database and web layer.
