Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso TikTok (Mountain View, CA)
Colloquio
Coding interviewer hit me with "what technical work have you done?" questions that I wasn't expecting since I was focused on coding. Coding was Leetcode. Similar to most tech companies, they want to see how you think. Unfortunately they did not warn me that speaking Mandarin was a "nice to have" skill.
