Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I developed a solid range of skills, from data / programming to softer skills such as presentation and communication. Being given relatively open-ended projects with the view to direct progress myself made learning and developing skills very straightforward as the needs and scopes of the projects changed

Support and Guidance

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend TikTok to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to TikTok
Do be prepared to be independent and self-driven. Being so new as a company, processes aren't necessarily as defined (and rigid) as they are in other companies so even as a new entrant you have a chance to make your mark, an opportunity to make the most of early in your career
