I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at TikTok in Apr 2021
Interview
Awful experience. Interviewed with other CSM’s.m along with CSM manager. The CSM manager was terrible at interviewing. I understand the company is new so the experience and knowledge of interviewing is limited but please invest in that area more. It was so bad the interviewer was awkward, wasnt sure how to ask questions and he even cut me short. The CSM manager cut me off mid sentence and said, “Sorry man I have meeting I really have to go.” Poor corporate culture as well due to company growing mostly during pandemic. The company has no identity when it comes to company culture.

Question 1
Describe a time you had to be a leader when your manager wasnt there.
We apologize for your negative interview experience. We try to make communication between interviewers and candidates open and respectful, and your experience does not meet the standards we set for ourselves. We hope you consider applying to other positions at TikTok if you're interested, and please reach out to us at global-oc@tiktok.com with additional feedback.
The whole process was smooth and professional with all the timelines followed. The HR was updating on every single instance. The instructions were pretty clear. The whole process took about 4 weeks to finish before receiving an offer.
