J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez TikTok (Seattle, WA) en mai 2022
Entretien
Got a referral. 30 mins recruiter call followed by 1 hr tech screen. tech screen was divided into 30 of ML related question, 30 mins of coding. Interviewer was very helpful. enjoyed the whole experience
Surprisingly straightforward — I expected a tougher challenge for a machine learning role. After a quick recruiter screen, the first technical round focused on implementing K-means clustering, which felt familiar. Handling edge cases for empty clusters was tricky, though. What really helped me prep were the algorithm explanations on PracHub, which gave me confidence going in. The final interviews were a mix of problem-solving and behavioral questions, and in the end, I received an offer that I accepted. Overall, it was a decent experience.
