Question 1
describe a project that you have done in your work
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at ByteDance (Neu-Delhi) in Jan 2020
Interview
Amazing experience, very open and logical. It was more of a candid talk and conversational than usual interviews. It started with an introduction and picking up interesting things and stories about my professional journey, eventually going into the role details.

What do you wish to shape your role going forward?
The process is straight forward. I got interviewed for Senior level, but later on they decided to upped me the higher 3-2. The first round is 1 person for screening. Second round is 3 persons, and then a surprising last round for another director interview.
Interviewers are friendly, supportive and nice overall.
