      Recruiter Interview

      Mar 20, 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at TikTok in Mar 2021

      Interview

      A recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn, it was hard to schedule as communication was not good from the beginning. We finally spoke on the phone and it was all about me, didn’t explain the role or the company or team. Asked many questions off a paper, some were hard others were normal to the role. Said she would get back to me on Monday, since that was on a Friday. It’s been three weeks! I emailed her to follow up a week later and she answered me days later apologising and she would get back to me soon. Nothing yet!!! Have some respect for us!

      We appreciate your feedback and sincerely apologize for the lack of responsiveness and respect for your time that you experienced. We hold our team to high standards of transparency and communication, but it's clear that we have room to improve. Please know that your experience was not representative of our recruiting as a whole, and we hope that you'll consider other roles at TikTok that may interest you. If you have additional feedback, reach out to us at global-oc@tiktok.com to continue discussing how to improve the process for future candidates!
