I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at ByteDance (New York, NY) in Jan 2022
Interview
First completed an online application. After a long delay was contacted for a series of technical interviews. All interview rounds focused on technical skills over past experience. Interviewers are from ByteDance in Beijing so knowing Mandarin may be a plus.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked random knowledge about networking and your chosen programming language.
In every step information they have given changed. At one point i dont even think they know what they are doing. Different working hours, different shift system info was given in each step. It was extremely confusing.
Submit applications and HR will notify there are two to three interviews. round 1 is someone who leads you directly, round 2 and 3 are seniors. It depends on which team you are applying
