La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso TikTok (San Jose, CA)
Colloquio
Phone screen with recruiter followed by 2 technical interviews on Hackerrank. Had some delays in the interviews when the engineer didn't show up, but was smooth after that. The questions were Leetcode medium type.

interview 2: left align an array of strings text, while packing all in a certain width.

Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso TikTok (Singapore) nel mese di gen 2026
Colloquio
Deep dive into past projects, anything that is relevant in software development would be asked, not only backend development. Then the interviewer posed questions about basic concepts and terminologies like locks, process management, memory management, database sharing etc. Ended with a medium Leetcode problem.
