I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at ByteDance (San Jose, CA) in Jul 2020
Interview
Phone Screen: Background questions, Round 1: Algorithm question. The manager in the technical interview seemed to be uninterested in the interview process. The question was fair but explanation was poor & tool used was difficult to use, a lot different than real tools used at work.
