Tiktok/ByteDance was interviewing pretty furiously in the Bay Area last year. All around I heard good things about the process.

An interesting thing about their interview process is that they often required a night time slot for at least one round.

This was because many teams had their direct manager or VP in mainland PRC, which has a 15 time hour difference.
