I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ByteDance (Singapur) in Oct 2020
Interview
I applied for a Software Engineer role originally.
The first round of interview was a typical series of Leetcode medium / difficult (in equal proportion) questions. I did not do so well for it, which might be why they deemed me more suitable for a Test Engineer role instead.
The second round of interview was with a QA team lead, and it was unexpectedly conducted in Mandarin on the request of the interviewer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
(In Mandarin) How would you design test cases for a payment gateway?
Using lark, and the interview asked mainly what I wrote on my resume. Elaborate my experience, and check whether I know some analytical tools such as SQL, python. They adjust the meeting time for me because we are not in the same time zone
I applied through other source. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at ByteDance (Manila, ) in Apr 2020

The interview process was pretty short & targeted to the role. STAR method was used. I had to go thru 3 rounds of interview (all telephonically) due to pandemic. The offer letter was provided in just 2 days.
