Entrevista
After the OA, there was a phone interview. I was asked many questions on ML basics like formula for the logistic regression model, difference between l1 and l2 regularization and then about my research. I had difficulty in understanding the interviewer's questions/responses to my questions due to accent issues. I was also a little nervous during the beginning that probably affected my performance. I think one should prepare stories about every leadership principle since I had difficulty thinking of one on the spot.

I went through two rounds of technical interviews. There was no coding at all; instead, I was asked about machine learning theory concepts as well as scenario-based applications and reasoning in ML.

Two back to back interviews focussed on breadth followed by depth covering pretty much the entire landscape of machine learning. They also have a lot of Leadership principles questions embedded into the interview. The challenging part is the breadth expectation.
