      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at ByteDance (Singapore) in Nov 2022

      Interviewed by a current employee, the whole process was in Chinese, and the interviewer did not ask for a self-introduction. Asked for coding questions but stopped me due to timing.
