I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at TikTok (Singapore) in Jun 2022
Interview
5-6 rounds of interview
1st round with the recruiter and last with the HRBP.
In between were the stakeholders whom you will work closely with. There were approximately 3-4 of them. where they asked hypothetical questions which were repeated over and over again from the same question bank.
Demeaning question - "Why were you on the previous role for such a short while? I saw one of the interviewers on linkedin with a shorter duration in his/her prior experience than mine. Not sure was it out of personal curiosity or professional courtesy.
Notoriously known for their poor interview experience.
I got multiple offers on the same day and i was just asking (through mail and whatsapp) whether there will be offer after investing 6-7 hours for those rounds in total. The recruiter went silent till this day which puzzled me. I have interviewed with them before and there will be updates whether you got the role or not.
It's just a simple yes or no for goodness sake. On the flip side, i went with the other offer. Best decision ever.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: Tell me about yourself
Q: What excites you about this role
Q:How do you help partners with low budget to spend on ads?
Q: How do you set alignment and expectation with different stakeholders to meet their requests?
Q: How do you deal with ambiguity?
Interviewer was not focused during the interview. Was not very interested and seem indifferent. Did alot of research on it and gave plenty of examples on how I can contribute to the role but seem like he was not convinced
Applied -> Phone screen -> Manager Screen
Did not end up getting past the manager screen, but it was overall nice conversations around the role, past experiences, and going over the program management process.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at TikTok (Seattle, WA) in Sept 2025
Interview
four rounds behavioral: recruiter, team lead, org lead, other team lead and an oa. the process too around 2 months, hr was very slow at responding and the process was pretty unstructured and unorganized.
