Two rounds of interviews. I was asked to do three leetcode medium coding tests. Then I was asked a general question: how to identify a user's interested topics as quickly as possible when he/she is new to an app.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How to identify a user's interested topics as quickly as possible when he/she is new to an app ?
The interview had 3 rounds. the first round was technical and more on resume and OS concepts(Virtual Memory, what is a system call, how it works, MLFQ scheduling) and 1 coding (implement a deque) 2nd round was technical, what is a semaphore and 1 coding(using mutx and condition variable, code how semaphore) 3rd was manager, this is where it got really bad. I was not able to understand of half what he said. He spoke very fast and it was really tough for me to understand. lee so Resume round, felt more like a English communication round(trying to figure out what he is sayinG)
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at ByteDance (Singapur) in Nov 2022
Interview
Interviewed by a current employee, the whole process was in Chinese, and the interviewer did not ask for a self-introduction. Asked for coding questions but stopped me due to timing.
