      Recruiter Interview

      Apr 16, 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Mountain View, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at TikTok (Mountain View, CA) in Jan 2020

      Interview

      I was disappointed with the interview experience I had with this company. The Recruiting Coordinator was the first to reach out after I applied (about a week later). They provided availability for me to choose from to speak with someone instead of me providing my times which I thought was very different from all other interviews I’ve had. In the confirmation, they do not provide who you will be speaking with so it will be a complete surprise! My first interview was via Zoom and I had someone interviewing me who had only been with the company for 3 weeks. Not a problem, but couldn’t get some of my questions answered. A week later, a different coordinator reached out to schedule a 2nd zoom call. Both my 1st and 2nd interviewers we’re friendly. Mind you they had a Recruiter role and a Technical Recruiter role. I was interviewing for the normal Recruiter role which only needed 1 year of experience in the job description (I met that expectation and more). But during my 2nd interview, she basically said they are looking for someone as a Technical Recruiter so I don’t qualify. I was quite confused of how I even got moved on from the first round then when this role was even described to me to be a general recruiter. I know the Mountain View office isn’t as established as LA, but a lot of work needs to be done on the candidate experience side. Please allow candidates to provide their own availability, provide who they will be meeting with to do necessary research and preparation, and communicate effectively with other interviewers. It seems like my interviewers were not on the same page at all.
