Interview questions [1]
Question 1
As an intern, I was asked about whether I plan on continuing my professional path at Mistral.
I interviewed with two AI Scientists on the code-gen team for 30 minutes.
I talked about my previous experience, they asked me to describe a project and then asked questions related to it. They got very deep into the details, they asked how I implemented X or Y.
Then general questions about transformers architecture.
Unfortunately I didn't get any feedback
I applied online. I interviewed at Mistral AI (Paris)
Interview
Screen with a basic ML Theory Question (CE vs KL Div), then a technical round composed of code review for 30 mins and LLM quiz+research talk. People are nice, though.
