A lot of the interview was spent talking about my previous job and how it worked, but the questions were not really related to assessing the skills related to the product operations specialist role.

Question 1
How are you evaluated and what are the KPIs for your role?
I applied online. I interviewed at TikTok (London, England) in Jan 2026
Interview
I had an initial interview back in January for a SoundOn role. They wanted to reschedule half an hour before the call, I said I would prefer to keep it to the same time. The interviewer was very passive aggressive and clearly frustrated that I couldn’t reschedule, asked for a brief summary of my experience and implied within the first few minutes of the interview that I was not what she was looking for. She decided to ask me interview questions "as a formality." She was uninterested in my answers and went through them like a laundry list. She allowed me to ask questions at the end, I asked one and she told me that it was a "bad" question and that I did not appear to know what role or company I was applying for.
I have never had an interview where the hiring manager was so disrespectful and belittling. She finished the interview with full confirmation I will not be moving forward and that there must have been a miscommunication as to how I reached the interview stage at all. She ended the interview, stating we "wasted each other's time."
The interview has repelled me from applying to this company (especially for SoundOn) again. Reached out to HR afterwards to report the interview and was ignored.

You have a stakeholder sending you thousands of songs but the metadata is inconsistent. You have three days, how would you go about this?

Interview
First interview with HR, simple questions to know your fit
second interview with the team, a lot of behavioral questions. They are looking for someone with passion and good critical thinking skills.
