Interview Process
I recently completed my third round interview with ByteDance North America, which was supposed to be with a manager. The recruiter mentioned it would consist of behavioral questions and system design, but during the interview, I was asked an algorithm question along with behavioral questions. I had contacted the recruiter about this discrepancy, but I doubt it will change anything.
The interview was challenging; the manager provided hints for the algorithm question, and I ran out of time to write test cases. Additionally, there were technical difficulties at the start due to a problem with the meeting link, which delayed the interview by ten minutes. During the interview, the manager was interrupted by someone else, causing a two-minute disconnection. Given these circumstances, I am concerned about my chances of moving forward.
