Friendly interviewers and the technical assessments were not too difficult to complete. I enjoyed the post-interview chats with my interviewers, and they were willing to share their personal experience as well. There was not much wait time after the recruiter reached out, and I heard back from the technical assessments about 1-2 weeks after each one.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at ByteDance
Interview
Interviewer asking about past experience, deep dive resume, followed by 2 coding question + fundamental computer science question.
Interviewer a bit quiet and give minimum hints. Total took 1.5 hours
Went thru a referral. Initial contact was quick. Then was left hanging for almost 2 months between stages. Had to keep pushing for a new interview date. 2nd interviewer was rude
