I applied online. I interviewed at ByteDance (Pekín, Pekín) in May 2022
Interview
there are 3 rounds in total, for the first round you will interview with your future potential colleague, then second round your manager, and the last round is your HR.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at ByteDance (Bangkok) in Mar 2023
Interview
Had the wonderful experience of being ghosted twice for the same role. The first time, recruiter ghosted me after the initial screening. A couple of months later, another recruiter reached out apologizing for the delay to ask if I was still interested. Unfortunately said yes since the role seemed interesting. Déjà vu, another ghosting after 5 rounds of interview (Screening + 2 Hiring Managers + HOD + HRBP). No reply when I tried following up after 10 days. Glad to have dodged a bullet if this is the culture inside BD
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Almost seemed like they were going off a checklist .All of them asked the same/similar questions - Walk me through your CV, 1/2 situational questions, Why tiktok? What changes will you implement if given a chance
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at ByteDance (Singapur)
Interview
Seemed they were not aware what were they looking for, technical pro or legal counsel. They were very disorganised, unprofessional, a bit arrogant. Interviewer did not even introduce himself. They might be attractive place for work for people without family. They were very proud about their 996 working hour system.
