Hiring manager was hostile seems to only be looking for people who are very executional and have had exactly the same background as what they are hiring for. I would say the hiring manager is quite close minded as transferable skills are not taken into account. Not much strategic thinking required for the job just need to be willing to hustle and grind a lot.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at TikTok (Dublin, Dublin) in Aug 2024
Interview
The interview process seemed to go fast at first than it stalled with no explanation. First meeting with hiring manager, then an interview with the team manager. Then 3+ weeks of complete silence and no answer to emails. Portal still says "Interviewing" and the job posting is still up there.
HR will contact you via Whatsapp to set up a time for the initial HR call. Basic questions asked, all manageable. Results will be shared 1-2 weeks after the call
