I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at TikTok
Interview
- 2 coding: medium to hard problems
- 1 system design, using hackerrank whiteboard
- 1 team match
I did not feel respected in the last team match round, the interviewer was arrogant. It was not a time for mutual understanding, but an interrogation. When I was noticed that I did not passed the team match round, they didn't even offer a chance for another team match interview, which is really screwed up.

OA - 1 arrays Medium, 1 Trie Hard. I had 45 minutes to complete that. I was able to do the medium in about 15-20 minutes but I am not that great with trie ds so I was not able to finish.
