there was a resume screen
then a phone call
then coding interview
was like leetcode hard difficulty
did it but didnt find optimal solution
was rejected a day later .
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at TikTok
Interview
two stage, passed the first technical stage -> didn't pass second coding interview. They give you two questions each. Some ice breaking, and then coding for about 50 mins, and then they answer any questions I might have.
This was a new grad position. It was first an OA round, then recruiter reached out after a week and got 3 technical rounds. These were mostly resume overview and LC questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most of the questions were LC medium-hard (some DP, some graph. Just be careful of implementing 2D dp questions.
