Interview questions [1]
Question 1
LeetCode easy/medium. ML fundamentals. Deep Learning domain specific and recent research questions.
I am a PhD and they asked a bachelor guy to interview me, stupid questions like asking me to solve his own project problems. Overall not a good interview if you are looking for a deep research oriented group
Standard process: introduction + technical screening + 4x 1 hour interview + follow-up with hiring manager Technical screening was a mix of domain knowledge + leetcode interview, also in the area. 4 hours interview were on 4 different subjects relevant to my team. Rather Average difficulty. On two interviews, I had leetcode problems to solve
