Have seen this in previous experience, companies tend to hire from competitors. When Meta unfreezes hiring are they coming for tiktok employees to help with Reels. Thinking if i need to brush up on leetcode or not😜😜 Tc : 450k/ 550k with monopoly money(paper rsus) #meta #hiring
They are looking for TikTok’s content. Your product/business folks might be more attractive than the engineers. Whatever Tiktok could build on a tech front is not a barrier I think.
Tiktok’s USP is its recommendation algorithm. That’s not PM/business work, it’s MLE/SDE work. Any MLE/SDE working on that will be way more valuable to them.
Recs is not the moat but the content is. As long as you have money, you can hire top ML talent. Instagram is definitely more attractive to global ML talent. TikTok hires ton of people (non-eng) working on making content attractive, which involve lots of manual curation. This could work in TikTok because labor cost in China is much less than in US.
Why TikTok's majority of employees are Chinese in China, good luck hiring them lolll (no you can't)
And how would you know that, @comzon?
Everyone knows what r u talking about lol
TikTok will hire Instagram employees
Doubt it, the Republicans will eventually tear down TilTok or just ban it altogether, if they win the next election that is.
