      Research Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Jose, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ByteDance (San Jose, CA) in Nov 2018

      Interview

      The interview process was six to seven rounds of 45min video interview. The funniest part is that they decide if you get into next round based on the feedback of your last interviewer, so you can easily get rejected once one of interview doesn't like you, compared to the group decision made by all interviews.
