The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at TikTok (Austin, TX) in Sep 2021
Interview
TikTok reached out to me since they found my resume on another past application, I was very happy to go through the process because the position sounded very interesting and it was something I know I could’ve felt very passionate about. I had three interviews, first one was with HR, second one was with another Client Solutions manager and it included a presentation, third interview was with another Client Solutions Manager. I thought I had done pretty well but two weeks passed and no one ever reached out. After the third week post interview I followed up with my HR contact and never heard back. I know TikTok is a new company so they’re still figuring out the quirks and I don’t mind being rejected, I just wish they could’ve at least provided me with some feedback so that I could continue my job search with that in mind. They did cancel on me multiple times which was okay but a bit of a red flag. I’ve read multiple reviews here where people are unhappy with the company and have no private life, and someone even said they were working over 12 hours a day…so maybe this was a blessing in disguise?

Went through a few rounds and was suddenly told there's no more headcount.
Overall the interviews were pretty challenging but it depends who your interviewer is. Do thorough research on your interviewer to prepare mentally.
