Who TikTok hires

TikTok hires for hard workers.

What have you done - but more importantly, what fire in your belly do you have now. Will you sweat for this company.

The people who do best at Tik Tok, have something to prove. And will run through walls todo so.

That will inevitably mean long hours. It will also mean compromising hard on ways-of-working.

In exchange, you will receive more responsibility than you care to hold, exposure to projects and decision-making that you wouldn't otherwise see.

And hands-on preparation for a future that’s more VUCA.
